hello kiddies, hope you had a merry christmas
![]() being that charlotte is a haven for those stining honda hatches, i never had any legit competition where should i go from here? 1. leave the engine/turbo alone look for more ways to put available power to the ground 2. work suspension (already thinking about doing this anyway) 3. mess with the motor some more? any suggestions? -------------------- |

another thing is that the smaller wheel will have less rotational mass then a bigger one. so even with more sidewall, the smaller lighter wheel will be easy to spin on street tires. think about it this way, even a stock ST can loose traction on 14in rims, but no way would it be able to spin 19s, right?
the wrinkle dan is talking about, is something you often see on drag slicks. something you would want on the track, but not on the street. the best thing to do is to is the find a balance of the 2 things. a nice 17x8in rim, with the biggest and widest tire you can fit on there, would probably work out well for street use, while still looking good. -------------------- 15PSI - 30MPG - Megasquirt Tuned
