i just bought a crx thats ready to go for some handling, my question is
what is a decent wheel size, i have been looking at 15x7 panasport
or 14x7 rs wanatabe. i want somthing i can take the car to the track and
maybe a little fun in the canyons. what are you guys using for wheel size
and why. pictures would be cool to
thanks

 

I think 15's aren't too big and you'll be fine with them. (Unless you plan on putting big slicks on them)

 

nothing bigger then 15's

 

you would probably want a 15x7 then...its hard to find sizes and tires for 14 inch rims...with 15's you have a great selection of all different brands and models as well as sizes...

 

well i mean for handeling, i know 15's are cool i would never go bigger than that.
any diffrance i mean, actually i cant find any cool rims in 15" that i like.

OEM
swirlies, fat fives, classic si's

 

Ive got 17's on my rex, with 45 series tires. I like them, but i wish i would have gotten 15's. Im with crxgator you will have a beter tire selection. My 17's do grip really well though. Just my thought. Good luck with whatever you decide.

 

I have 16 rotas and they work just fine

 

15's are the way to go for all around performence and looks but I wouldnt push more the 16's.
I have drove crx's with 13's,14's,15's,16's and 17's and 15's feel the best and look the best.

 

14x7 panasports are available. i sold a set of used ones recently, but theyre hard to find used because its rare anyone wants to get rid of em, i hardly wanted to myself.

15x7 kosei k1 are a good option too.

however, 14" tires will be cheaper than 15", and you wont be missing any performance with 14" tires.

 

what exactly do fat fives come off of?? i want some.

 

i'd suggest 15" or 16" Rota Circuit 8's.

They come off of 95 Integra GSR's. Theyre dime a dozen down in HI.

 

Fat fives were off 2nd gen early GSR's, Blades were off later model GSR's. No bigger than the smallest 15's you can get. Ill post a pic of my 89 4 door with fat fives as soon as i get a chance if you want it. They look pretty huge and they killed my clutch

 

15's

15"s get some GSRs or SIs theyre cheap n good.

The wheels people commonly refer to as 'fat fives' were off of the early 3rd gen Integras, not second. That may have been a typo on your part, however.

I don't think any of the Integra wheels look good on EF's, except the 2nd gen GSR's. Especially the fat fives....they're too rounded and curvy to look good with the boxy shape of EF's, IMHO. 99-00 (and I guess 7th gen EX's...lol) Si's on the other hand, are perfect for an EF!

15" fully forged wheels with 205-50-15 Falken Azenis Sport tires mounted and balanced.

1025 shipped. Awesome deal for an awesome wheel..(yay I rhymed)

I have 15's on my civic and wont go any other way.

Just for reference...here are 15" Rota circut 8's on my car with Dunlop Sp8000 rubber and H&R sports.

I hated those damn fat fives on my 4 door, roasted the ol' clutch
