Are 19's way to big for an RSX?
Just wondering a few things first can 19's fit without any mods and how will it affect my ride. What kind of a difference would there be with 18's and how wide of a wheel would be optimal. Also any recommendations for tires?

If you get a really low profile tire such as 35 or even the rare 30 series, than yes, they will fit, but youll feel every little bump in the road. Otherwise, I'm not too sure about the rsx, but I think the fender wall is big enough to allow for such a rim.

If it were my car - 18's is biggest i would use. how about some 20" spinners
 225/35r19 is the recommended plus size for that car. 91lx is right your gonna feel everything www.tirerack.com www.whalentire.com

Not only do 19's look bad on RSX's, have fun with bent rims. Tiny ass sidewall means not only do you feel all the bumps, but your wheels feel all the bumps. Hit one fair-sized pothole and you're going to have a bent rim.

My friend has a '03 RSX-S and his 18" enkie's look like 16's or 17's. He is sellin his 18's and gettin 19" racing hart cr's w/ a deep dish and i think they are gonna look phatty. The RSX wheel well is actually quite big.

If the wheels rub, you can "roll" you fenders.

19's do look good but is it all worth it?
Cost - tires/rims Bent rims Shitty ride Wheel bearing damage Brake wear(abnormal) Suspension damage Performance drop
