I am getting ready to buy some new rota rims and was wanting to know if I should get 15's or 16 inch rims or maybe 17's. I will probably be lowering it on the skunk 2 springs. Thanks

Hell ya lol ! I will be taking it to the track to run in the quarter mile this summer. I sometimes street race when im on a back road. I have the 98 itr tranny and ive heard the bigger the rim the more it take away from your take off. Im mostly concerened about scrubbing though.

yeah i like to stick to as close of a stock diameter on my wheels to prevent rubbing and so that the speedo isnt off. In my opinion, i'd get a smaller rim and spend more on a good tire. I run Nitto NT555's and fuckin love them. Very grippy especially for autoX

i'd agree with the max on civic being 15" thats wat i run and my speedo is still good and take off is amazing plus i didn't experience any power loss when upgrading from stock 14" rims
