just to let you know...i live in oregon which in my opinion is the riciest state out there and the only cars I see with rims on the back only are either crx's (civics) or civics. Just keeping you informed.

This question could just have as easily been posted in the Integra forum.

The reason a lot of "kids" run aftermarket wheels in the back and steelies in the front is due to the fact that cheap, large aftermarket wheels weigh a TON. Thus, they use relatively lightweight and smaller diameter steelies up front for the whole drag race thing. That way they can run the 1/4 in, say, 16 flat instead of taking 18 or 19 seconds to do so.

Note that all of the above information was taken from a fellow Integra forum member who copies that exact "setup" for the large amount of street racing his Integra sees.

ahhh but some of them cant afford to buy all 4 rims so they will put steelies of the front so too give them a grassroots racer look

pretty stupid, I'd just save up for some nice rims and leave them on there for the track

the time I get at the track should be the same as on the street, I dot think I would have time to change rims at a stoplight race
