My personal opinion is 17" wheels with a 215/40-17 but I know everyone on here is all about the 16". I used to like 18's but now they look very out of place on a Civic/Integra.

For teggy's I've always liked 16" better and some falken azena's would do it some good.

I like 16" or smaller on a teg. I had 15" blades on my car, and i really liked it, but at some angles they looked small at times because of my Oem kit. I now have 16" and it looks alot more proportionized with the lip kit.

17"+ look funny on a teg if you dont have a body kit to make up for the larger wheel. The picture above is a perfect example, the lip and sideskirts make the car look more proportionized with that big of a wheel.

As far as tire size on a g3 teg with 16" wheels 205/45/16 looks the best IMO, the 40 series leaves to much gap and makes the wheels look really small. On 15" rims I have always ran 205/50/15.

I like 16's best on Integra's... I've had all sizes ranging from 15" to 17" and the 17's by far provided the best look, but the 16's have provided the best performance...

My Wheel List & Tire Sizes:
Stock LS Wheels: 195/55/15
17" RH C2 Evo: 205/40/17
16" Rota Slips: 205/40/16
16" Velox VX8-R: 205/40/16
15" Rota Slips: 195/50/15
16" Rota Slips (again): 205/45/16

that is one BAD *** looking car!


i think 16's look better on a teg provided its lowered.

otherwise, i'd go with 15's . you can go wrong considering type-R's come with 15's stock.

but surely you wont like the ride of the 16's as much as the 15's. that's why this wheel ***** has gone full circle. now i ride on stock 15's.

strangely enough, i like how that looks; with the 18's and all...i dunno i would downgrade to 17's for everyday use, then slap some 16's with azenis for track days.

i use to have 18" te-37's on my teg, and it looked close to 4x4 style w/o sideskirts or some type of lipkit.

I personally like the weight benefits of a 15 inch wheel, but if you decide to run a 16, make sure it's 7 inches wide and run 215/45/16 Falken Azenis.

I run 16x7 wheels with 40 series tires with a 2.5" drop all around (.5 - .75" gap), and I like the way it looks. I'll probably go with a 215/45/16 or a 225/45/16 for my next tire. I'm looking at running a 14x6 wheel with azenis for racing.

i got some 205/50/14 BFGoodrich g-Force T/A Drag Radial on donuts just for dragging, or when i used to drag. i also have a set of 195/60/14 for the winter and i have my stock GSR wheels with Kumho 205/50/15. i plan to go with 205/55/15 for better milage. the 50's are great around those corners though.
