    Wheels and Suspension

    What's the best rim size for a 91 LX? I have 14"s right now and I'm not sure if I need to go 17"s or maybe higher. I also want to improve my handling through turns ar high speed and stabilize the car after 115 mph+ because afterwards it starts shaking a little. Does anyone have any products in mind?

      16 inch rims are good for handling, but you should do what YOU want to do.

          I'm a little new to the scene so english please? rota slips? And what are the measurements for the 215 55? What I want for my car is for the wheel wells to be filled up a little more, and for the car to have improved handling. I'm not really looking for a drop, I mean really I'm neutral on the whole lower ride idea so if the wells are filled up and the car handles better then so be it. And I want the ride to be just as smooth as it is stock or better.

                if you want to fill the fender gap and want improved handling, just get some 17" wheels with 205-40-17 size tires and some ebay coilovers with some agx shocks. if money is not an issue just get top of the line suspension like tein. lates.

                    that's true the car will be more slammed, but if he wants to fill the fender gap he's going to have to drop the car more compromising a comfortable ride. he can get 16's but will need to get a taller tire. maybe a 205-50-16. if he has good suspension then i guees it won't matter.lates

                      i have 205-40-17's and i think the handling and ride is better than that of the 205-60 -15 rims i had on it in the first place...if i were to get other wheels i probably would go 16 inch a bit wider and higher...maybe 205-50-16? i think they would look ok and ride a bit better and handle about the same....or how about 215-50-16? i wonder how they would look...

                        Funny how I can't "Test-Drive" all these combos..... So let me get this straight I get 17"s drop it slightly and I shouldn't compromise the ride right?

                          everytime you lower a car and get bigger size wheels, your ride will change. it depends on the type of suspension setup that will determine how much stiffer or bouncier your ride will be. if i were you, i would definately read up more on this site and others before you do anything to your car. the suspension faq on here is a good place to start.

                            ride comfort usually depends mostly on tire profile (higher being better-thicker sidewall) and softer springs (usually taller-shorter springs have to be harder to have less travel since they are shorter)

                            so get a 2" drop on some soft springs

                            eibach sportlines...closest to OEM drop..i love mine..so smooth
