Default how big is too big for wheels on a 96 integra?

I just bought 15's and tires for something around $500.00, i think they're too small. Should I maybe drop the car an inch or two? They have like 600 miles on them, looking to sell them, hopefully not lose too much money. How big are you guys going on wheels? 17" or 18" with low prof. tires? Pushing it with 19"? Any pics on your shoes anyone? THANKSSSSSS

With 15's you can run a regular size tire and still have a nice looking wheel.

My next set of wheels will probably be 15's or 16's with a tire that doesn't make my ride harsher and noisier.

If you get 18's.....get 'em chrome and make sure they keep on spinnin'

17's are perfect if not 16.
17-looks matter alot
16-performance matters alot

A word of caution to all: Keep the discussion civil.

The last time this topic came up, all hell broke loose.
No one wants that to happen again, right?

Nuff said.
