Hey guys I am trying to get 18 rims for my lude. I need some advice on either taking 215/35/18 tires or 225/20/18 tires. Also are 17's better than 18's? I just need some general feedback. Thanks

17s are better than 18s because I like the number 17 more than 18. That's my subjective opinion concerning which one is "better".

Damn, there's a company that makes a 20 series tire? That **** has to be hella thin. I'd go with a 215/35R18 tire if you get 18's or a 215/40R17 if you get 17's

So I guess the whole idea of 17 or 18 is a tradeoff between looks and performance cuz I think the 35 tyres will give a rough ride but look more slick. Is there much difference in looks? I am into looks but I prefer a more comfortable ride

ooops my bad prelude1897. It is 205/40/17, not 20. lol

Awww, gotcha. If you go with 17's, get some 215/40R17 tires. They're not too thin, and they're wide enough for our cars. I have this size tire with my RSX-s rims right now and have no complaints

What do you guys think about a set of ADR venomous rims on a prelude?
