25's fit fine you just need to raise your car to accommodate the extra hight of the tire.


Ride hight is not set yet...

i have my car dumped on springs and want to get it to fit 25's. will I have to raise it higher than the stock oem height. If so I might be looking at full coilovers.($600-$1000). which I dont have.

although my car's not a Honda....
when i switched from my 23 inch m&h to the 25 inch m&H i went from 96mph in the 1/8th to 100mph and hit 11.40xx vs 11.80xx with no other tuning changes and still hitting 1.6-1.7 60fts. The 25s felt great...no spinning in 3rd or 4th like the 23's.
02 cents of info

Judging by the name of the thread, Id guess they're 25" slicks. Those are 13" wheels
