Whells on RSX type s?

[Shinnypoo]

i have a 2003 rsx type s. i can fit 18 inch rims on my car right? without touching the inner well linings or anything like trhat. how do big rims such as the 18 inch rims effect performance?

[Cy@tirerack]

For a stock RSX Type S, 215/40-18 or 225/40-18 will work without rubbing.

By going to the larger wheel & lower profile tire, you will sharpen steering response but unless you go with a lightweight wheel car may accelerate slightly slower and take slightly longer to stop because of the heavier rotational weight.

thanks, do u know of any 18 inch rims that are light weight? not chrome ones, racing style i guess. Any one know the specs on the fittipaldi flame rims?

[Cy@tirerack]

We don't carry the Fittapaldi but we carry the Kazera KZ-S which is another multi-spoke wheel. This 18x7 wheel weighs 19.8 lbs.

On a scale of 1 to 10, what is the quality of the Kazera KZ-S rims? I saw them recently at tiretrack and sort of fell in love with them. What is the comparison of those rims to let's say... OZ, VOLK, and so on, where would it fall in the overall qulaity?
