Hi,
I would just like to say Hi to my fellow Type R owners. I'm pretty sure I'm the only Type R where I live, so I don't get alot of info on them. I own a Black 2000 Type R with a jackson supercharger. I pretty mcuh bought every mod I could bolt on to my car that wouldn't deal with the internals. Right now I want new wheels. Are 18"'s too big for a Type R?

I don't think so, but your gettin pretty close to the limit, but hey you can always jack up the car.

18's are to big performance wise, but if you are into show, they aren't bad.

the problem with 18' is, that they makes you slower.
Try 16'.

16's are great but I like the price of 15" tires!

You are right. I still have the original 15' in grey at my car.
But there you have some problems to find other tyres than those originals from Hankook.
Yesterday I bought two new one. One tire cost here over 100$!

Man forget all that. " three 13 inch rims are running on it's side, there running on the side? yeah they running on there side."

I particularly like those Mugen rims nice and light and 16's! I'm gonna get a pair soon.
