I'm leaning twords the calipers because my brakes need upgrading soon anyways, but new wheels would be nice.
Considering any alternates to spoon calipers? I'm sure you could do larger rotors with legend or nsx calipers for a couple hundred cheaper, then get wheels as well. I know the spoons are highly praised but I think you could get similar performance for less money.

If he plans to track then the 205, in theory, will function better.


Got impatient and threw the corners on, the lip, emblems and bumper plugs are next.

195/45's on a teg will throw your speedometer way off, that is too small.

thank you sir! good luck not taking your dash out. it's not hard to remove and put back, just need space and time to do it.

Still a little on the small side for a integra. But that would be good if you plan on going low.

205/50 will rub if your low. trust me i know. LOL.

195-45 or 205-45 would be good if your very low like the situation.

I'm still on stock suspenion, but when I lower it I'm not going to slam it to the floor. I'm probablly just going to get springs that drop ~2" like I had on my coupe since this thing is still a daily.

Your db was kinda low, not low enough to rub on 205/50's.

Dc squad is a lot cooler group then any other squad. So i still consider this my squad.
