Hello... thinking bout getting esm 002r for my integra which sits pretty low... I had a few concerns tho... I was going to get 16x8 for the fronts and 16x9 for the rear... I was wondering what size tire I should run on these wheels... currently i am running 15x7 with a 205/50/15 tire and about -2 degrees camber all around with blox camber kits... in the rear my tire is real close to touching the spot where the rear bumper mounts to the quarter panel... and was also wondering will these camber kits give me enough camber to fit the wheels? Thanks

Have any offset specs of your current wheel and offset specs of your future wheels?

Total noob here comming from a vw/miata/mustang/ everything other than a honda background my knowledge on all things offset pertaining to honda/acura is limited at best. I've recently bought a 1999 civic si-r and I'm looking to switch up the wheels and stance. Looking to pick up esm 002r in 16x9 et. 15 and blackworks front and rear camber kits. looking to run a 205/40r16 tire. I know all of this should fit but I was wondering how much of a fender roll/pull will I be looking at to fit this all up under the stock fenders? ( Car is in T1R b maxes at the moment as well.) Thanks in advance guys!!!

That 9" width and the +15 offset is going to be a bitch.

One or the other...no biggie...both...going to require a serious roll...if not a pull too.

I'm new to the forum. This is my first civic and I'm pretty stoked. Not doing a lot of stuff to it but what I'm going to describe as vividly as possible to get you a good idea and try and help me find a good tire size. Just got me a 94 civic ex sedan (white) put a brand new jdm b16a motor in it. Just got me a set of function and form type 1 coilover shocks. Got front and rear upper and lover control arm camber kit. And just got a set of 15x8 STR 513 white wheels with 0 offset. Ita got some super ugly 17s on it now and sits pretty dumb. So i will be sitting it pretty damn low to the ground. I was trying to get some help with tire sizes. Will be my only car work is 65 miles one way and 65 back 5 days a week. Don't want it to look too meaty and dumb. I was thinking about 195/50. What do you guys think?? Pics of your car would be helpful thanks guys.

is it possible to run a 16x8.5 with a +20 offset with minimal tire stretch and minimal camber?

sansvtec

It all depends on how low your car sits. If it is pretty low, you're gonna want to run like a 195 or a 205 with some camber and a fender roll/pull.

Here's a pic for reference. Apparently a 16x8.5 +20




Google is your friend on this one.

troppysteg

because i really don't want to stretch my tires or have insane camber ware and i want it to be functional.

sansvtec

I would go with something more like a 16x7.5 +30 if you don't want to go camber crazy or do crazy stretching. It will still require some rolling.




I think these are 16x7.5 +32

Those are actually 16xPhotoshop'd.5. The image used overtop of the original wheels are from SSR's website. The brown Suzuki Lapin rear wheel is the image used.

Oh really? I just googled "16x7.5 DC2" LOL

This is 16x7.5 +26 on a DC2 (215/45/16 tires):

205/40


gonna need camber kits and rolled fenders

Ricecakes330

I have a fender roller. But 205s? I was told to go 195 I wanna stretch the tire n also have some poke too. For the camber kits why do I need them? I don't want to much camber but the factory camber I can deal with.

195 on 9 inch rim...you can pull it off, but that's a lot of stretch. I think 205's would look great. I doubt you can run a 9 inch wheel with that offset and not need camber kits....but keep us posted if you can. Good luck

Ricecakes330

do you know if you run into a problem with that low offset? im trying to get this done without some camber kits..... let me know what i will be running into i should say

Hey guys sorry for being the new kid here and not knowing much but I figured I could really use your help. I'm new to the stance and low life and I wanted some input. I was going to buy the 16x8.25 +0 XXR 527's for my 98 Integra GSR but I dont know what size tires to get to have a nice poke/stretch look. I'm lowering my car with function and form coils and I was also planning on rolling my fenders. Should I also do anything with adjusting camber and maybe add spacers? Any help would be much appreciated! Thanks!

Luke_CD5

165 or 175 for a nice stretch , and 195 for a small stretch . you'll be cutting it real close , i'd run some rear camber if you don't wanna pull your fenders . front should be good as is , may even need spacers .

Quick question guys

I have some 16x7 +40 Sprint Hart CPRs. I'm debating on running a 15mm spacer with 205/45 tires. I would like to avoid doing any modifications to my fenders. I'd also like to keep my inner fender liners on. I don't plan on being slammed. Just want to tuck a tiny bit of tire tread in the front. In the rear i want to be even with tire. Do you guys think this is possible?
