ap1 wheels

weak_sauce · 05-15-2008, 10:55 PM

Will the Honda s2000 ap1 wheels fit on the 05 rsx with no rubbing issue? I know for sure 4 front ap1 wheels will fit but not sure of the rear. Please help me out. Thanks

SkankyEJ7 · 05-16-2008, 09:07 AM

No, I'm pretty sure only the fronts fits.

weak_sauce · 05-16-2008, 02:36 PM

So the rears will rub tremendously?

SkankyEJ7 · 05-16-2008, 02:39 PM

I'm not sure if its to do with the hub's of the offset, I just know that I have read that only the fronts fits.

weak_sauce · 05-16-2008, 06:18 PM

Thanks! Any other recommendations ?

young noob #2 · 05-16-2008, 06:28 PM

just a thought, but I know that on ep3's that fitting 225's requires rolling the rears but not the fronts, so maybe you could switch the ap1 wheels and use the rears on the front and vice versa, even run a staggered a set-up to allow our rear to rotate more, thats what im doing, just not with ap1 wheels, just getting rota's or sportmax and running 225's up front and 215's in the back, what exactly is the offset and rim width on the ap1 wheels?

RudyCholo · 05-18-2008, 01:37 PM

I've always wanted to see ap1's on a dc5. Are they 16's?

DC5_lov3r · 05-18-2008, 01:40 PM

I think you need to run spacers to make them stick out more.

AP1 OEM US wheel spec same as JDM BBS 6 spoke rim (lighter)
16X6.5 +55 front
16X7.5 +65 rear

young noob #2 · 05-19-2008, 12:41 PM

jesus thats one hell of an offset, I didn't know they were that positive, you could always get extended studs and run spacers......there is a member on ephatch.com that is using this set-up and it looks awesome, ill go get it here shortly

lend_type_R · 05-19-2008, 06:48 PM

how about AP2? heres the spec

17" x 7.0", +55 offset
17" x 8.5", +65 offset

J_Bones · 05-19-2008, 07:27 PM

im running 06 type s brake setup with no spacers. zero problems what so ever. they do stick in a little bit, but nothing to slot car-ish.

GradyDC5 · 05-20-2008, 02:57 PM

25mm Spacers will put you flush. 25mm spacers flush out my itr's on my type-s.

weak_sauce · 05-24-2008, 09:39 PM

sweet..im put them on and see how it goes.

thetunersource · 05-25-2008, 02:08 AM

man that **** looks gooood

DC5RHD · 05-25-2008, 04:28 PM

Now you guys running ap1 wheels, are you just using 2 sets of fronts? because ive heard that u cant use the rears..

J_Bones · 05-25-2008, 05:27 PM

got it. 4 fronts all around.

thrty8street · 05-26-2008, 03:15 AM

how heavy are the the AP1 wheels?

HondaKyle · 05-26-2008, 03:41 AM

I vote on the stock rims look better on the car.... With the money and time you spent looking for a set of the AP1 wheels you could have some rotas...

phylast · 05-26-2008, 06:06 AM

wow, those look good
