Interesting wheel setup (autocross/street)
I just found this page:
http://www.hartwheels.co.jp/matching...art_CP-035.htm
It is basically recommendations of wheel sizes for various cars for both gymkhana and street. Interestingly, the Integra is listed with different wheel sizes for front and back:
Front wheels: 16-8.0J +43
Front tyres: 225/45-16
Back wheels: 15-6.5J +45
Back tyres: 205/50-15
I'm assuming this is to give greater grip and less understeer?
Anyone tried this setup or similar?

Most autocrossers use a similar setup with 225/45/15 or 225/50/15 tires in the front and 205/50/15 tires in the rear. This setup promotes more rotation of the vehicle.
