is it just me or have the americans got some weird taste in wheels? i'm all for being different but they like small wheels :shock: I was on a forum and they where talking about putting 15s on an EP which IMO looks crap. I even think my 17s look a little small. I myself really fancy a set of 18s  |

The smaller the wheels the better launch you have off the start? |

yes/no, there is a point at which there is a happy medium, i believe its 16's for Civic Sports? too small or too big = loss of speed in different areas

i just think that the EP2 are relatively slow cars, so whats the point in worrying about speed when your car isn't built for performance  . I'd rather go for looks than speed and save worrying about speed for when i get a fast car  . I defo would not go less than 17's on my EP because even they look pretty small.  Paddy |

Paddy True, but the american ep is a 2.0l k series engine with 160bhp so performance is there and smaller wheels are worthwile. However they due tend to slam the feck out of the car, which kinda makes up for the lack of wheel size. |

i`ll be using both but more often ephatch coz if the EP3 section and it looks a hell of alot nicer
Some ppl say oh what does it matter that it looks pretty? Well I intend to make a good contribution as i`ve done here so in other words i`ll be looking at it alot so a forum that looks skidden underpants isn`t as enjoyable
christ is this forum still going?
