Larger wheels

[Aaron520]

Hey I just recently bought an integra type s and I was wondering if there’s any wider wheels that fit it properly. I daily drive this car for my commute which is the main reason I’m asking. I’d keep the old wheels for whenever I go to a track, just looking to take the bumps out of the road.

You're likely looking for taller tires, and it'll require new wheels. You need a thicker sidewall to absorb the bumps--check out a 245/40/R18. Smaller wheel (18 rather than 19), more sidewall, slightly narrower.

Awesome thank you so much, will it impact the speedometer at all you think?

That's not a big enough shift to affect the speedometer, but if you want to play with other size ratios, this site will tell you if they'll rub or throw off the speedometer: https://tiresize.com/comparison/

If you’re going to track it, you’ll want to consider a smaller forged wheel, use the one wheels for your daily. I just use 18” forged wheels year round now. 285/35/18.

Why not post in the type S section of the forums?

235/40r18 should get you the closest to speedometer if you're going with 18's. That's what I did for my winter wheel setup based on speedometer, even though TireRack recommended I go with 245.

I've seen 275/30/19 285/30/19 and others have gone to 18's but stock rims can handle the 285's from what I have seen.
I was thinking of going to 275/30 with 20 mm spacers to get a slightly wider look while adding a tiny bit more sidewall.

Yes.. get some 20s.. I'm dying to see larger wheels on this platform.
