Do they offer them in 15x7 as well? Want to get a set for the track but for Honda Challenge there is a maximum of 7" width.

Why are some of you guys running spacers? Is it so your wheels sit more flush?

Either that or because the 9" wide 6ULs will not fit either the front or the rear of most models without a spacer, and the 8" 6ULs need a spacer on the rear on some cars.

Ahh true, totally forgot about 9".

I'm using 8" fine on my DC2, no spacers, but only barely just enough clearance on the rear.

My 8" with a 225/45-15 NT01 fit in the rear without a spacer on my CRX. There is a polished spot on the trailing arm, but the wheel and tire is able to rotate freely when the rear is off the ground.

Those are 15" wheels. The 6UL's are only offered in 15" heights. The 6ULR's are 17" tall, but look much different.

Nice pics.

Looking as to whether I should go 7.5 or 8" on my EG, but looks like 8" would give me a better tire selection should I need to go bigger. How's the clearance on the EG6 with 8" front and rear ?

Theres 18 pages of pictures and discussion, with a majority of them being 8" on 92-95 civics.

Anyone on here know of a place that still has some black 15x8's in stock? I need 2, pm me.

Why did you choose to go with the 15x9 if you are only going to run a 225 tire? My 225 R888s fit squarely on my 15x8 949's. And I didnt need a spacer.

225 R-Comps is a little much for an 8, I mean unless you're putting down the power. Remember, most performance tires run a little wider than whats stamped on the sidewall so your setup is actually not square. Emilio at 949 runs 225's on a 9.

I run 205's on a 8. Lighter, sqare, no rollover, responsive

Dunlop 205's run a bit wider than Kumho 205's.

You havent always had dunlops on there have you? Pics/vids on the track are r888's no?

They're closer to the 210-215 mark iirc.

I retired my 225 triple 8's after their 7th track day. They started giving out on me on the 5th.
