No...you'll need to roll fenders, which if done correctly does not change the appearance of the car at all, just makes a little room in the openings

I have some ESM-002R 16x8 offset +20 CB57.1 lip 2.5
my tires are 205/45/16 I had to roll my rear fender up against the fender well so it does not rub

I only ran the 5mm spacers in the front cause I would have had to roll the rear (Sport-Comp 2 tires have wide shoulders). Wheels are just 15x7 +40 rotas with 195/50. Car's lowered about 2.5" in the front, natural camber via stock UCAs bringing it to about -2.4* according to my alignment sheet that summer.

Not many pics that show the clearances but here's one that may help.

Thanks man, thats the look im going for. My wheels are +44 thats why i said 10mm spacer
Based on your wheels specs +40 with the 5mm spacer will give you +35
Sounded like you didnt roll your front fender either.

Despite the debate on lip style, Looks good no matter the "style."
Hey Guys. I've been busy at work and I haven't been able to accomplish much on the sedan. To properly carry-on the STEEZ; I sold my Greddy DT off the integra and was blessed Minh sold me his mint EK application DT Muffler. I also found a surprise and valuable piece to the puzzle that should be here eibach-ish. The car will not debut there but my boy Ahmed in AZ is bringing it up for me. :nervy:
As far as working updates, Unlike any other civic ( to my knowledge ) w/ P/S my re-routed ac and condenser will allow me to use the ITR P/S cooler. It just needs a bit of creativity for the lines.
not fully mounted yet, hence the jdm angle. Even in her busted shape, I love her more than my integra already.
I did get the old "tunnel plate" removed that belonged to the AT shifter cables. Now I'm stuck in-between making a cover plate as pictured below or using the old piece I hammered flat, plugging the hole and adding some filler foam. This is the cars current status. Hope to get it sorted soon, and updates will follow.
I like this route better than my plate LOL

Yep, it's a 96-98 spoon replica in polyurethane. the tab that rests over top of the lower part of the bumper needed to be trimmed on either side 2-3 inches. Doesn't fit super well then again i never really sat down and tried to massage it more. i should have the front bumper off next week sometime for some corrosion control on the headlight supports and will take a few pics for ya!
I've seen a few people modify EM1 lips to fit, I believe they need to be lengthened about an inch and that's what I'd really like to get eventually

JDM- Never seen that muffler before. What is the smaller pipe for? I like your shift linkage plate. Will it be covered?

I had an 96-98 SiR lip which I was told was bolt on, and it wasn't even close!! Been told that the 96-98 CTR lip is bolt on, but no one has pics of mounting. I really wish I could find an OEM Domani or EL lip. I don't wanna just order a real CTR lip and find out that it's another hack up install like the SiR would have been. I ended up just selling the lip and the bumper is still naked.

The smaller pipe allows "tune-ability." You can change the exhaust tone by either capping it off, or leaving it uncapped. As far as will it be covered? Not sure what you mean, but will the pipes stick out mad Jdm? No. I don't support atrocities like that lol.

I was referring to the shifter plate being covered by a console or left open because racecar. If left open I was going to suggest some design or dimple die holes in it.

It's a nerd, LOL but thank you. Over time it'll look better hopefully. I will see you at Eibach, in a casual everyday car.
ouch ouch the literalists are out......... My apologies i didn't mean it literally.
Oh, I'll have everything covered up. No "race car" plans at the moment.

I spent a bit of time with welding rod and a spare head/manifold working out the angles, but unless you order a huge batch you're not going to get custom ones. These ones do the job. They're twin cone and are aimed properly at the back of the valves.
I'll eventually move back to an insulated gasket too, but too many other things to get to and life/work staying in the way of car projects, ya know?
It's kind of fun to look at that post... Fast forward a year and a half and now worrying about that kind of stuff is my job!

I do. I'm still running those EV14s I picked up from Injector Nation, I've been really happy with them. I'd run the EV14 type on any production car they fit, there's no good reason to be running 20 year old dinosaur stock ones. Precision spray is where it's at.

Twice I've replied, it was not meant literally. Poor choice of words on my part, if that's what you need to hear. Let's officially move forward now?

Spent today after work taping up the fenders to start drawing out the flare lines. I picked up a set of track life composites cutouts and flares to make room for way too much tire, and now i'm tasked with positioning them. It's an EK specific kit, but the Domani front end is different enough that it's not as easy as I would have hoped. Yay for painters tape and more painters tape.
