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?

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$!
