Default widest wheel for a civic?

what would be the widest wheel/offset that would fit a civic without rolling fenders? im wondering because the new k1s came out in 15x8 and would like to try that setup... thanks in advance

you are going to need to roll the fender with a 15x8. Probably with any offset.

Unless you are stretching a really narrow tire on it...which would pretty much suck.

Well here are some 15x9's

Also, you may want to talk to "rodney," as I believe he is pretty knowledgeable on the subject.

As for not rolling the fenders, I think a 15x6.5 with a 205 is probably the max.

I've never seen a Civic with anything larger than 15x7" unless they rolled the fenders or added wider fenders.

15x7" 45mm offset OR 41mm offset with 205/50x15" Azenis barely rub the inner fenders on my Civics.

15x8" would be way wide.
