Just a tad. I'd go 18's at most. Someone here has GT-N's(?) in 18" and it looks great. You can forget about acceleration though haha

I'd say they are waaaaayyyy too big, but each their own.
If i was going for show I would not do more than 17's.

Good luck

I would not go any bigger than 16", and even then that'd be for street only.

All i have to say to that is holyshit! You should've bought a suv or somthing. You asked for my opinion and there you go. 16-17's at the absolute most.

i think 15-16" wheels look very proportional on 3rd generation integras.. in few cases 17".

Why? 19s increase unsprung weight and in a light weight car like the ITR where weight mATTERs, it means tOO much weight and zero acceleration. Why build a car where it looks ricey and goes like ****. Even for a SHOKAR, the main thing would be a nice kit and 17s would more den suffice. 19s mean rolling the guards to fit the wheels. Anyway, to each their own, just my 2c

PS: hope its not CHROME BLING BLING... dat would really suck.

I didn't think 19's even fit

In my opinion Honda's look stupid with anything bigger then 17's At the Most, even 17's look kinda silly but I guess it depends on the car. Like someone said, on a light-weight car the last thing you need is big heavy wheels.





Get da Bloooo ones!

19's are essential, just make sure they are spinners so you can blind everyone at your local roadcourse, oh wait, you probably wont see a road course


Spinners!
