im just curious on some thoughts about my 89 DX 1.5 hatch because i only like doing downhill mountain passes/very curvy roads.i just dropped my 13" stock steelies and got some 205/55/15 my engine is basically stock so i may have 100HP if im lucky but i have decent suspention.i havnt tryed them yet but i think they may be too wide for the car.

 

The correct size for 15's is 205/50/15 and 195/55/15. And it shouldn't depend on the tires and wheels, but the brakes if it is downhill....It also sounds like public roads

And what theory is that?

Anyone that does "downhills", "mountain runs" or general stupidy on the street will die or kill someone. Hopefully whoever they kill is there relative so it all stays in the family and does not hurt others.

 

anyone else find it funny that he thinks he has 100hp with a stock 1.5L ?

whats so funny about that?i said basically stock and dont hate because i know my car has no power fastest its ever been is 220k on the autobahn

 

your sig is funny, anyway, just buy a tire with sticky compound, slap it on your steelies, and call it a day

 

thats a good idea ,thanks but im in germany and i will need my all seasons in a couple of monthes because it snows like crazy here and i bought some 15" for 40$ and they are lighter then the steelies plus i need the wider wheels for Nurburgring when i go there so i dont slide off the track.it hasnt happened yet but when i put a friend of mine's bwm wheels on my car i was able to fly around turns there

 

hmm, ok, give me a few moments to think about the strategy then....ok I thought about it, buy some tires with a sticky compound, and slap them on your 15's

He's in Germany. I don't he has the same D15. I could be wrong though.

Either way, keep it on track

It's the same d15b2, 92chp and who knows what at the wheels. EDM DXs used the d15b2 with dpfi in EGs, also.

 

Oh well, i guess death is bestowed onto me and everyone else who enjoy curvy roads

 

a lower profile tire/rim combo would help some, other than that some sticker tires and a good suspension setup. have fun on those hill curves, but watch out for gravel, its a bitch....

You're just crazy.

 

do they sell srt4's in germany?

 

Get yourself some 195/45 Kumho KU31 on 7x15" rims and be happy.

Und immer schoen vorsichtig fahren...

honda-tech doesn't like Umlauts I think

 

gravel sure is a bitch, I crashed into a rock the size of my crx 'cuz the tires lost it going over gravel, all I wanted to do was take a turn anyway, it was a 5 mph impact though, after skidding off the road when I hit gravel, I went into dirt/gravel mix that slowed me down considerably before crashing into the rock, only damage the car got was a scraped up bumper, this was a long time ago, so watch out for that, which there is alot of in hilly road, why, I do not know

 

screw down hill in the crx up hill is much more fun
