18s or 17's for my 4 dr integra? please help
its a 4 dr sedan, and im seriously having a hard time deciding on which size to get, what would be the best and does 17 and 18 make much of a difference in size? can I slam my car with 18's or would it rub too much since the tires are wider, cuz right now im slammed on 195/55/15 and it rubs when i turn, but i dont think i'll be able to set my coilovers all the way down with 18's, plus i wont have to, since 18's are bigger, i wouldnt have to drop it much in order for it to tuck the wheel a lil right? please help me guys...
its a 96 by the way

h: :rick:
I have seen some and they are nice. It will hurt performance just a tad but that is obvious because of the size and weight. Just make sure you get the offset.
Dont worry about the haters, do what you want.

If all you care about is your car looking "tiiite y0!" then go right ahead and slap on whatever shitty too-big rims you want on there like ADRs. But if you want to actually improve the performance of your car (which is generally the reason to go to a bigger tire) then you'll stick with a rim that isn't too big.
Leave it up to some of these performance junkies around here and we will all be riding 14's.
17's are nice and you will have a great amount of variety to go with. There are some very light 17's out there too but of course, they will cost you. 18's are purely looks when it comes to integra.
Nothing wrong with going for looks either.
Also, the performance hit is not that big of a deal.

Yeah because smaller wheels are always better. 
You want to have a good match between wheel size and the car. Integras like to have a 15" or 16" wheel with a section width in the 205-215 range.
If you need to clear big brakes then lightweight 17s are fine but otherwise there's no point except for the look. It is also true that most people buying things "for the look" generally don't go drop $350 a rim to get something light weight.

Smaller wheels are always better for people who pay more attention to performance then looks. If performance was the concern, it would have been mentioned.
And since when does a light weight 17 cost 350?
I will discontinue this charade of whats better before mr "Integra and Engine Tech Moderator" ban me for having an opinion.
