Rim Offset Question?
Ive done some research heres what ive found for my 90 crx si. If i want to throw some diamond racing wheels on it.. I would want to go 15x8 with +12 offset a 5mm spacer in the front with some fender rolling in the rear? Can someone validate this?
Thanks in advance

As far as I know, Manny's correct.
You're gonna have to run like -4 camber to fit those wheels, especially with the spacer up front. I personally wouldn't run less than +20 offset on 8in wheels but that's just me. You're definitely going to have to roll or shave your fenders (shaving's cheaper), and probably fit 175/50 tires to stretch enough to clear.

Re: Rim Offset Question?
If you're dropping your car 3-4'', the natural negative camber will most likely be enough to tuck your tires cleanly, but you WILL have to roll your fenders flush, or just shave them. If I were you (and I'm doing this anyway), I would just shave them. It's faster, easier, and less likely to make your fenders look like ****.
