Tire Reccomendations?? Other Upgrades????

i need some new tires, anyone know a good place to get them? I have the 16 inch stock rims, think im just gonna replace the tires but i was also contemplating new rims and tires. I havent really been into fixing it up lately but when i first got it, i did a full exhaust system headers and all, new head unit and componet speakers. I always wanted to do a short throw shifter and intake but could never find any good stuff, any advice would be helpful

i think the rims u have are pretty sweet, i'm sure ppl on here would buy them if u were to sell them. where are u located? As for short shifters... people like to go with the Prelude shifter, which is very cheap if u can find one... PSPEC
( http://www.pspectuning.com/9799acura.php ) offers a great one... but it costs a rough 150-200, depending if u get the shifter/boot with it. as for rims/tires, ur gonna want to give it a drop as well (meaning suspension, shocks, coilovers, springs... whatever u want). look for the lug pattern of 4x114.3.
if u don't wanna be flamed.... use the SEARCH option. All of ur questions have been gone over millions of times.

ive got falkens on mine, theyre sticky and i love 'em, improved immensely over stock, then again i got new wheels as well

goin into a lighter wheel could help the unsprung weight on your suspension and of course the looks if you wanna go in that direction....but i guess if you wanna go the big g-style blingin rims bullshit method you might not care about that area of performance, haha

look at wheel and tire packages online...you'll get a way better deal than any in-store or in-shop prices....my buddy got 19 inch volks(thats only plus 1 over stock!) for his 350z for amazingly less than what he got quoted by every shop in town

I buy all my tires and rims from discounttiredirect.com. They ship it free and if you buy a rim and tire package they mount and balance them for you and then ship it for free. They are good on prices also.
