Finding wider rims and rubber
Hey, my friend has a 97' integra LS, and we are currently modifying it. With this specific project, we can't put aftermarket rims on due to mod-anal parents. However, the 5.5" (i think) width rims and tires are sorely inadequate in the corners. The idea that I have is to find another car that runs the same lug pattern (4x100) as integra but that uses wider wheels. This will retain a non-modified look but will allow us a much wider contact patch.
What cars out there would be using a good wheel for this? They don't need to be big rims - 15 or 16 inches is fine, just wide - 7" or more. I was thinking that alot of sedans/family vehicles run wider tires like 7-7.5"... are there any acura sedans or such that this would work with, or other cars with that lug pattern and wider wheels?
