cheap is definitely the way to go...i'm not some hardcore off roader or anything like that - clearly i can't afford it.

I just want things to look a lil bit cooler, and a lil bit different from stock like everyone else.

I've currenlty contacted one gentlement who i believe either makes or distributes...can get me the spacers for about $80-$100 so i'ev been told. I'm currenlty awaiting a reply!

If this works then yeah ill be going with your above suggestion of 31x10.5" tires!

Dont forget that the more 'extreme' the tread, generally the louder the driving, and the crappier the handling, ON-road.

I have 31.5x10x16's on my Blazer (Dunlop radial rover), they are a VERY mild all-terrain/towing tire, and they are VERY loud, and if I keep them at full PSI, they feel like I need to keep both hands on the wheel to keep the beast in its lane on the highway...

You wont exactly be out-manuevering many hondas once you go bigger, lets just say.

Hopefully i won't really need to out manouver them, preferably just drive over them (kidding kidding, i'd never drive over some skid's car with a stupid fish tail on the back of it)

But yeah i hear you, i wanna get something practical as it'll be mainly in city driving, but it won't hurt to just have a lil more agressive look....I think 31x10.5" tires and a minimal 2" lift will give it that look with just about any tires!
