Well, what we're trying to say is you're already going to look like a ***** so drop it like a hot bowl of rice if you want. :

why would you want to put 18s? your acceleration will suffer along with gas mileage. Also your ODO reading will be affected

NO, because the smallest tires commonly sold for 18" wheels are 215/35-18, too big for an Integra.

If you want, you can get 17" wheels and put 205/40-17 tires on them. However, I think those are a bit too big visually, and ride comfort becomes an issue. 16" with 205/45-16 or 215/45-16 works well.

Ugh.

18's will fit.

But only at stock height.

But you WILL rub when turning. 215 is too wide with stock fenders.

i bought my first teg from a ricer that had the car slammed on 18's with 215/35/18 and it did not rub. i drove it for a day like that then took them off but it didnt rub

LoL, this is the kind of advice you get from H-T.

If you get 18's, I would advise you to lower your car on coilovers, and find a ride height that suits you and your car without problems.

215/35/18's will fit just fine without rubbing so long, as mentioned, you're not over lowered.

when i bought my integra the kid had Racing Hart's in 18's on the car, it'll work just fine, however it'll put me in the market for some Rota GT3's in 16's.

Rubbing is not the only problem you will have when using oversized tires like 215/35-18. They also throw off the accuracy of the speedometer and odometer, they reduce the car's acceleration (because of "effective gearing", it's like getting taller gears on your car, and also because they're usually heavier), the ride quality will be harsh because of the shorter sidewalls, and the tires cost more too. These are facts, not opinions. And in exchange for that, there are no offsetting advantages other than looks, which is totally subjective (but FWIW more people will think it looks stupid than cool). If you still want to put them on your car and live with all those disadvantages, it's your car and you can do whatever you want to it.
