If this has been asked previously could somebody point me a link and tell me to shush.

I am looking at improvements for my civic which currently runs 205/55/16's on an alloy rim.

I used a tire size calculator somebody posted previously and found if I run something along the lines of a 185/75/14 I will get the same speed readout as my stock tires (which is something i'm definitely interested in).

Now for the question, am I better off keeping stock or going to a narrower tire with a smaller rim and putting solid hubcaps on a set of steel rims? Does anybody have data to show what kind of improvement if any?
