Default will this rub?







5th gen prelude

these are older s2k wheels that came on the early s2ks. tires are 215/55/16. i think the width is 7.5"

will this rub when im driving? does the UCA move or will it never hit the inner wheel? if i have to get spacers is 3mm enough to clear it safely w/o making it look like its sticking out to far. i was looking at ebay universal spacers

Wheel spacers and possibly some extended lugs. Careful driving that.

RWD offset wheels on FWD? I think VW Vortex is the authority on that subject.
