Suspension Question

Hey guys,

I have stock 13" rims on my EG civic. I want to upgrade to 15" wheels. Can my stock suspension handle that, or should i upgrade it?

It should be fine, although on some level, I do believe they are all related, so if the rims become too large, the suspension (mainly the soft springs) might not handle so well.

When you increase your wheel size, the car will need more power to rotate the rims, in this case, the car might seem slower.

If my info aren't correct, I apologize.
