I'll be running 14x6 (+38) Mugen CF-48's wrapped in 195/60/14 Falken Azenis RT-615's once I get my TEIN's. This setup will see only dry weather and the occasional autocross.
This is the only pic I have so far:

OEM Honda Snowflake(Sunflower) 15x6"
Kumho Escta 711 205/50/15
Daily and AutoX tire, its seen the drag strip too.
Its great for daily its ok at AutoX, IMO its not too bad for a "Performance All-Season." The price is good enough i think id put them on all my cars as a All Season Daily tire. But i will deffintaly getting something wider lighter and stickyer for a race tire in the future.

I've got cheapie 15x6.5 ~38mm offset wheels from Discount Tire, with Yokohoma ES100 195/50/15 tires mounted. Added eBay Honda emblems to the centers, so I guess they don't look too shabby. My car is strictly for DD use, and I'm really happy with the combo.

I have 1991 Honda CRX Si rims and Falken Azenis. IMO, the Falkens are soft, grippy, wear very well considering the compound, but heavy, hydroplane, cannot be used in winter, and transmit vibrations from the road because of the stiff inflexible sidewall. It's the right tire for some people but not everyone. I don't like them particularly because they aren't a good street tire (hydroplane, harsh ride, and wear fast) and not a good race tire either (not soft enough). I would definitely buy another set of Falkens like the Ziex. I'll pass on the Azenis next time. It's not a good drag tire either. It makes you wonder what they are good for--street racing and drifting? For racing, I ditched the Azenis for Kumho V710 (a true race compound) and Diamond Racing Rims that I bought from E-AT Me, and will try them for the first time this Sunday.
I hope you don't mind me showing your car, Eats.
