Default Dub's for '98 LS

So I'm thinking about getting some new rims for my car, what would be the largest size rim that would fit? Also do I need to mess with my ABS?

You don't need to mess with your ABS, but any rims larger than 17" will look goofy and will throw the speedometer off by a good amount. You will most likely have rubbing issues as well.

If you want to put dubs on a car, sell your teg and buy an escalade or something.

I know of one member who had 18s on his white teg and it looked pretty descent.
It's only a matter of how you set the whole thing up. Whatever you do, try to keep it nice and clean.
I'm pretty sure 18" is the maximum you can fit without doing a MAJOR chasis and suspension modification but if you are going larger than 16", you definitely want to do something to your suspension as well as rolling the fenders. Also, the bigger the rims are, the heavier they are. Stock LS doesn't have much hp and putting 18"+ will affect accelaration, handling, gas milage, ride quality, etc.

i believe the largest an integra can hold is 18's with a 35 or 40 series tire. maybe 19s with a 35 series tire, but i doubt it. the largest you should go is 16s on an integra. anything else looks bad and out of place.
