Wheel Size
I have a 94 acura integra LS that came standard with 14" steelies. I use to run Azenis on the old steelies, then switched them over to 14x6 bmw bottlecaps. Should I up grade to 15x6.-15x7 range with 205 azenis? The response on track seems okay with the 14x6, but wondering If going with 15" wheels make a difference?

Re: Wheel Size (Gong Show)
yes the 205 will make a BIG difference. I recommend the 15x7 or 15x7.5 if you can get it. you'll need it with the new beast thats going in there 
but if you ever wanted to upgrade brake size then I would recomend jumping higher then 15. but for auto-x, and occasional track days it will be great.

15x7 +38 and your set. plenty of room for growth in tire width and as large a brake set up as you'll need.
Im looking to step it up to 16x7 w/ 225's when my current tires are done.
any particular reason you want to go 16s?

To fit a good 225 street tire. Unless some of the good street tires start making them wider for 15's. (z1, Re01, re11, or some of the others coming out). Im not sure if I need a 225 but id like to try it.

Assuming you are also in an Integra. You know you will have to run at least -3 camber and have a slight fender roll to accomodate that tire size up front. I compromised and went with 215's to eliminate all the extra hassle. It did limit my chioces in tire selection though.
