My 13x7.5 Exospeed wheels fit over my Integra brakes and are 9.2 lb each. I like them. They are my track wheels though.

Got these with the car. OEM set.

Never really cared for them much, though they are super light when I ran with em.

Might be interested in letting them go.

Marcus,

Your MP Teins are still going strong on my ride. It's been at least 4 years and running now. Right?

nice wheels... but a few "issues" with the wheel/tire size debate...

a 15 inch RPF1 with 195/50-15 performance tire will be better than a 13 inch steelie with same said performance tire in a 175/70-13..

i'm just saying. there are way more factors to performance than just wheel diameter. i don't want to open this can of worms really... it could get out of control very quickly.

pure acceleration? then get a 13 inch alloy wheel with a 50 series tire. it will improve your "acceleration" by changing your effective final drive. but in all honesty, if this was the case, we'd all be clamoring for a way to get a 10 inch wheel on our cars. like i said. i could open this can of worms if needed...

14's are a good compromise. for our cars 14's are just about right. 15's are slightly too big, but i still like the look of them. 16's on anything pre 96 civic and it's just too much.

like i said. nice wheels ballade. need a set of white ones or "colored" ones to add to the collection now!

1986 Civic Si; b16a is in.. just gotta get it running..
longest swap ever.....

I kinda agree. I'm running 185 60 13's, depending on what kind of rubber your running a smaller tire will warm up faster, which is great for auto cross.

The extra side wall can (not always) be a benefit.

In the looks department IMHO 84-87 DX CRX's look a bit better on 13's 86-87 CRX Si's look better on 14's due to the longer bumpers

Civics pull off 15's

of course a good healthy drop does wonders.
