16's are not stock on an Integra. 14-15's yes 16's no. IMO 16's fit Teg's better. 17 doesn't seem to have enough sidewall for my taste. 18+ just look too big to me. But taste is subjective. What you like and what I like are totally different.

Well I go back to work tomorrow, so Ill have a look. I am thinking bout going with some 16's, nice and light weight. And the 132 mph thing was just me racing my roomate home, only done it once. The tires still have alot of tread, i just dont know much it affects a tire that isnt rated to go that fast for a long stretch.

No one answered #2. Tires wasnt an option. :slap:

an ignition system normally wouldnt give you any hp gains if any.

Going that fast could have damaged the tire, but my point was you would have noticed it as you flew sideways off the road...

Tires ought to be an option. You were the one who said that they suck! :slap:

#2. My b-day is coming up and Ill probally be asking for $$$$ for my b-day. Anyways I was curious as to which route to take. Camshafts/Valve Springs or Ignition? Which would yeild me the most gain? I saw an ignition that claimed to raise whp like 15. I know camshafts would get me bout 12 - 15 maybe. What you guys think?

Thanks
What are your future plans for the car? Going with aggressive camshafts rules out forced induction in the future. This is way too open-ended of a question, which is why most members recommended some tires, because better rubber is always a good thing.

You're saying you'll get enough $$$ on your birthday to get new cams/valvesprings + tuning? Do you understand how much it costs to run a set of +15whp cams? These are NOT bolt-on/drop-in applications.

Where do you get off insulting everyone else's opinions? I guess because I want to go the performance route, not the show route and get 16" wheels, my opinion sucks.

If you're such an expert, what junk yard did I get my car out of?

Why don't you put on some 50lb. 19" wheels sans bodykit then? IWith those cams and that ignition you just might be able to pull off a 16sec quarter mile time. I'm sure your car will also look HOT HOT HOT

I decided to go the 17" route but I don't call folks with 15-16" wheels "gay", particularly since most of them are faster than me.

If you wanted opinions, you should be prepared to handle them. If you're going to insult people for taking the time to try to help you out, then that defeats the whole purpose of an online forum.
