Handling Improvement
I have a 98 EK hb and i'm sure u all know that handling is one of the most important for a FF. Do i get better handling if i get wider tires? will wider tires also make your car slower? also what's the width of the tires that the Civics and integras use for autocross and other races that demands a lot of handling?

Re: Handling Improvement (EKcivic1230)
tires determine how well you stick to the road, they play a minor role in handling. just get some nice sticky tires like the nittto neo gens and you will be able to take turns better.
you have to have suspension upgrades and other things to get better handling. traction bars, better shocks/springs, sway bars can read up on these in my suspension thread in my sig below.

Tires do play a major role in handling.

im not gonna argue with you cause they are whats touching the ground. but,
do you get better handling out of a set of tires or suspension upgrades like i mentioned??
granted tires are best bang for the buck on handling but i cant see starting with something that will be gone before i get more done handling wise. im doing all the bars and shoxks/springs upgrades first that way im not wasting money on good tires to be worn out when i get it all done. but thats me
now put them together and you got it made
