For traction and looks. I was concerned about running a big mud tyre but I went out with my neighbour on the weekend in his Toyota Landcruiser running big mud tyres. That thing sailed smoothly on the street and highway with no real noise and good feel so I've decided to rock the serious tyres.
Just need to find a good deal and whack em on my EM1 wheels.
Sometime after your suspension settles in can you post a measurement from ground to top of wheelwell arch front and back? Lift look real good. I'm trying to figure out if my wagon is lifted or stock because my overall spring/strut length front and rear are as long as the 93 integras. you said yours were accords. I like how tall yours is now.

Finally got a sunny afternoon to whack in the rear shocks and we have lift all around.
Camber at the rear is a little questionable but I have adjustable camber arms to deal with that if need be.
I have decided to go with the Maxxis Trepador M8060 tyres.

EM1 wheels + Maxxis Trepador M8060 205/70/r15
They fit (sort of). I won't say they don't rub because they do, at full lock. I can live with it since they make my wagon look so damn mean.
If I could have gotten a 205/65/r15 or a 195/65/r15 in a mud tyre I would have but there's really not much choice for offroad stuff in those sizes.
Here's the aftermath - taken with a real camera instead of my crappy phone camera...
Video coming soon...
