well my accord is my daily driver...occasianaly i race at night if the next car over is up to it...or just for fun i like to hear my CAI scream on bridges..etc..where sounds bounces back......also my driving conditions vary...from city pothole...to flat straightaways... you get my point. Well i used to run 17'' on a 40 setup..until a pothole put my rims out of service....now im running 15's on 60 setup...i often find i lose traction on the rear wheels on sharp turns...have wheel flex on turns...and have to much up and down motion...just like this smiley... .well now im thinking about redoing my whole tire setup this is what im thinking of doing..and can you tell me if this is a wise choice in tires.
rim diameter?
well im thinking of running 15' or 16 inch rota slipstreams.....i beleive the 15 are lighter than any 17 inch model...thats the only advantage i can think of getting a smaller diameter rim...are there any other advantages??? other than lighter size?? or does having a larger diameter rim give me an advantage over a smaller one?
tire size 40 through 60 which size?
im thinking of running either a 45 or 50 setup...i think 55 or 60 would have to0 much wheel flex and lose on traction just like my 60's now...but how much protection do i need for potholes?? other than swerving?? will 45 be sufficient if i hit a pothole dead on??....and various daily city driving...
right now im more focused on controlling my car than adding power...so i feel this is my next project..any input would help..thanks team!
