Whislt I reckon the FD1 has great handling compared to other cars in the price range and class, I'm still a bit paranoid after reading this remark regarding high speed lane change maneuvers from Wheels Magazine;
URL: http://www.ozhonda.com/forum/showthr...wheels%2C+gripQuote:
Interestingly, and going against the more popular perception that smaller cars are more agile, the Honda managed an entry speed of just 105km/h into the lane-change exercise - just 3 and 4km/h better than Territory and RAV4 respectively - before its rear end started doing the pendulum thing. Every vehicle you could expect might beat it here, did, with the exception of the Corolla. This result was at odds with the Honda's solid performance in the slalom (sixth), demosntrating that swerve and recover ability is speed-dependent.

Ivan_Y ---> Holy crap, are they 20s?? How did you get them on if Civics can only be upgraded to have 17s? I heard anything more than 2 inches from stock causes:
a) a bumpy ride
b) high potential for bent rims
c) rotor/gear problems
d) bearings to become wrecked
even with coilovers one would still have the problem of at least c and d?
What do you mean civics can only be upgraded to 17's?
a) yes 20s would increase the comfort of the ride - but if you have 20's on you car you aren't going for comfort
b) not sure why 20's would increase the chance of bending your rims
c) not sure how 20's would increase your gears?
d) possible - but its a risk you take
