Default 18's on 4th gen stock height? pic request

hey I'm getting some 18's from a friend but don't have the money to get some lowering springs or anything, so I was wondering if anyone had a pic of a prelude with 18's on it at stock height

Please don't put 18s on your Lude. 16 - maybe 17 if you must.

i've got 18's on mine and i love it. they fill they wheel well perfectly.......

my advice is to wait intill you get lowering springs installed before you put those rims on...it will look retarded.

they are 18's with 215-35-18 tires, i really didnt like them. the ride quality was horrible much worse than it had to be, they were too heavy so lost acceloration and power to the wheels.
