You should really think about upgrading to 17" wheels and tires. Sounds like you would benfit most from that, or 16" wheels. I think the Tegs got 15" wheels stock, so if you dont want to spend the loot on a new wheel and tire package, just get some nice tires. I recommend Toyos. Not the FZ4 tho, the T1-S. Dont let some shop guy talk you into Nittos or Yok's....they burn too quick. Check this link...should help you out. http://www.tirerack.com Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cintron Posted February 25 Report Share Posted February 25 yup. I concur - stay away from nittos. They tend to have a weak structure that's susceptible to blowouts with potholes.tirerack has the tire selector that takes into account the conditions you'll drive through. use it remember, if you get high performance tires, you may sacrifice winter traction in bad weather. also DEFINITELY check out the ratings/reviews of the tires. if you can afford it, go grab a nice set of wheels and sticky summer tires. Keep your stock wheels around for the winter, in case you want to throw snow tires on em. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
atomicapples Posted February 25 Report Share Posted February 25 first off FUCK toyos... dont get toyos or nittos.if you want a good all season tire then get yoks... want good performance tiers, get yoks... mich is very good too....dont get 17... waste of money. why do you want something so bling and spend extra money on tires cuz you will have get thinner tires. and on top of that. most girls dont know how to dodge potholes. if i was you, and need some kinda tires to get from point A to point B, invest in some good yoks on stock rims. if you want to get new rims. get cheapo replicas and they wont cost too much. i would recommend. rota slipstreams replicas of spoon sw... 12 poundsrota circuit 8 replicas of mugen... 18 pounds Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
atomicapples Posted February 25 Report Share Posted February 25 get 16, the reason why is. smaller the rim, faster acceleration. smaller the rim, more profile on the tires. and since "somebitch" isnt going to lower her car or anything, keeping a more profile is good, less to worry about.

joeg Posted February 25 Report Share Posted February 25 yeah, i highly recommend rota's... i have the subzeros ( 17x7.5 @ 16lbs) got em for $500 shipped off ebay for all 4... (replicas of the RacingHart CP-035's)and i wrapped em in yokohama avs-sport 225/45/Z17... no complaints whatsoever...

ou812 Posted February 25 Report Share Posted February 25 You need some nice white wall tires, oh and some gold wire rims w/ spinners too. Nothing says "bling, bling" like a nice set of ghetto fab wheels & tires like those. Might I suggested getting some hydraulics installed as well so you can hit the 3-wheeled motion up and down the block.You will be the envy of everyone you drive past in no time.

atomicapples Posted February 25 Report Share Posted February 25 Originally posted by somebitch 1 year... what model integra? 1 year isnt that long. but if you got nice tires and nice rims, you can always put it next honda you get. most honda uses a 4 lug pattern except for the type R, prelude, accord v6, and most acuras.

cintron Posted February 25 Report Share Posted February 25 hmmmmmm.well you COULD go and get sport tires for your stock wheels... that'd be fine. i was going to suggest getting a front strut tower brace to stiffen things up, but your lease is up in a year.whatcha lookin' at next?

somebitch Posted February 25 Author Report Share Posted February 25 i dont know what i will get next... my friend works at acura so ill probably get another acura but a faster one. i only got this car because i was just out of college and my parents wouldnt help me out at all, my friend got this one for me with zero down and pretty low monthly payments.what kinda sport tires do i get???

cintron Posted February 25 Report Share Posted February 25 screw those. they're too long-wearing.seeing as you're only going to have the car a year and you'll probably be transferring to something else (if you get an RSX-Type S i will kiss you), i'd recommend buying the cheapest performance tires that are decent.Kuhmo Ecsta Supra 712's. cheap, sticky and very durable over NYC roads. then when the lease is up you can REALLY look at mods for the next car Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
