Anyone know what the widest wheel/lowest offset we can fit is? Without crazy rubbing?

I don't want hellaflush/stretched tires/etc.

I just want to know before I order anything too crazy

8" width and a 195 tire will not look good imo. It will stretch the tire.

yeah , they are slightly different.

seat rails are EASY to build though, why dont you just build them.

take the stock sliders. bolt to the car.

lay some flat stock between them at whatever distance works for the seat.

weld to sliders. drill holes. enjoy.

How nice it would be to have factory power windows in my crx! But then I'd have to worry about solenoids and actuators going bad and leaving me with inoperable windows!

nah no estimates yet, but im sure it will be considered totaled, every fairing on the bike is cracked and the tank dented on both sides. full coverage insurance on a street bike at my age is about 350 a month, so i only had liability. im waiting to see what the police report states to see if it will be covered under uninsured motorist. but there werent any witnesses and the only person that saw it was too scared to stick around so i think im gonna get stuck with all the bills
