Which Integra should i modify a DC5 (02-06) or a DC2 (1994-2001) integra?

Short answer is yes. The larger rims/tires are heavier than the stock ones This adds addtional stress to suspension components, etc. The effect is more long term. Additional rolling mass also requires more energy to change state - speed up or slow down (accelerate or stop).

Definitely. It wasn't designed for that change. You will need to do a complete suspension and steering upgrade to go along with the new rim size. Happy spending. Might as well do a full trick out on the beast.

No, but you will have more rolling mass and your speedometer will be off. They will make the brakes work harder, and check for clearance so you don't hit the fenders and tear up the tires and the body.

LEXUS CORPORATE district CUSTOMER SERVICE representative??

absoltuely not. As long as the new wheels and tires match the original wheels and tires size, youre fine.
The original tires are P225/60R16
for 20" wheels, your new tires should be 225/20R20
Its going to look like ***, but the dimensions are going to remain the same, but the weight is going to be different, so the rotational mass will be different, unless you can find some 20" forged wheels. they will be lighter then the cast wheels on it now, so a bigger size forged shouldnt change the weight.

Bigger wheels means Bigger rotating mass for the Brakes to deal with. Also the computers need to be re-programed for the different tire size and may not be available to do.

Don't forget that Chevy sells Impalas with 18 inch wheels, therefore they should not hurt one. 20's might cause a little added wear. Bad drving habits will hurt a car more than bigger rims.

Slave Cylinder Change?

I get tired of these supersize wheel haters but monster trucks and euro/exotic sportscars like Ferrari's and Lambos come with 19's...Maybachs and Rolls Royces come with 20's now...back in the days, cars came with 14's and 15's...dudes put 16 to 18 inchers on their cars...once upon a time, squares would moan about losing the hubcaps for mag wheels...as long as you upgrade your suspension and brakes...get the rims and tires mounted correctly..it should be all good...you can't drive too fast, though...2 miles per hour, so everybody can see you!
