Icon2 Opinion's needed for my dc

So I'm at a cross roads with my wheel and tire set up and need some imput from others. I've always owned 92-95 civic hatches before the dc and generally ran a 15'' wheel with a 50 series tire cause i felt it would make for a better, softer ride. just recently in looking at this car when i leave in the morning or walk outside for whatever reason i cant help but feel a 15 is too small for the bigger integra. I really dont have a problem stepping up to a 16 just wanna know what series tire other are running and if they notice any significant difference in how it rides... here's a pic of my current set-up





opinions are appreciated. TIA

im not a fan of 16s on these cars because the tire choice isnt nearly as good as 15. 205.50.15 have a great selection

yokohama what. not trying to be a smart *** but when people say "oh i like yokohama" there is no validity to that statement because each brand has many different tire models. a basic economy tire is going to be much lower performance than say an AD08 for example.

but that said I like the s.drive for a daily driver.

true true i've always run the avs es100 but would most likely step over to an AD model of some sort. I havent really looked into it yet cause i'm guessing when i finally obtain 16s they'll come with tires (not lookin to buy wheels new) with good tread left. I'll tackle it accordingly

here's another snap of the dc from my parents house the other day
