Default 98 ls integra

my birthday just came and i have some money to spend i really want new rims and tires but my car has over 200 thousand miles im trying to get feed back on what to do im worried if i put the money in rims and tires the motor could fail on me its going to be expensive if i take it somewhere to have somone go threw the motor and do a overhaul on it i would really like to tear it down myself but dont know enough about what im doing if i could get ahold of a gsr motor or b16 for cheap that would be awsome just trying to figure out what to do help me out

When was the last time you have done general maintenance? Plugs/Wires/Cap/Rotor/fuel filter/oilchange? Also was the timing belt ever changed?

Ook, well have you thought about suspension? That always comes first before wheels anyday. i would get a nice set of coilovers, drastically changes looks and the way your car drives. And I dont mean cheap eBay crap, something KYB/Ground control or maybe a Koni/Skunk2 setup, or function/form, all good setups. you can get some f&fs for around $550 shipped

Don't get chrome. Also how low are you? I got KYB AGX shocks with H&R Race springs, and 17x7 wheels with a 215-45 tire and Im about to roll my fenders because thier shredding my tires as a result of me being so low
