If I want a nice smooth ride, but have good grip and good acceleration, what sized tires should I go for on my 98 ek?

 

They don't exist.

 

To begin with, what size wheel will you be installing them on?

 

If you want tires to make you accelerate faster then go with some 205/10/14s on those stock rims.

 

I would like to have 16's for the looks, but I am not sure if those are too big to have good acceleration.

 

Tire size isn't that important. It may be if you have a N/A D15 or D16, but to boost heads, 16s are fine.

Are these tires going to be used for winter driving in the snow or just summer driving? Track tires?

 

Well, I have a D16Y8, and I plan on keeping it n/a until I put a JR supercharger on it at a later time. I live in Phoenix, AZ, so it will be constant summer driving, even in the middle of the winter, I hate this state. I was planning on putting on some 205/50/15s, but what kind of rating can I get for those? Speed rating I mean.

Why does it matter? You shouldn't be going over 70 or so for any prolonged period of time, so unless your using them as track tires, anything over an H is just wasted.

 

16x7 if you wanna go Falken Azenis Sport because they make a 215/45-16.

205/40-16's work well on Civics too. Maybe Falken GRBeta FK-451's.
