Finally a pic of my beater and tire fitment question
Here's a pic of my beater... check it out...
I need to raise the car a bit because my tires rub. I had these C8's sitting in my garage from my accord. My stock tires are nearly bald and I need to inspect the car. I knew these would rub a bit at this ride height due to the large tires 205/50/16, but I think I'm going to have to raise the car quite a bit to alleviate the rubbing.
Are all C8's with the 4x100 & 4x114 manufactured with one offset, or are there multiple offsets available?

Re: Finally a pic of my beater and tire fitment question (92SIvic)
Yes. I bought these for my accord and have since sold my car. Seemed like a good short term solution since they were sitting in my garage and have less than 1k miles on them. On a previous civic, I had both 205/40's and 205/45's and I think the 205/45's are the way to go.

The issue isn't necessarily height, it seems as though these are wide tires, or, maybe the offset is incorrect. I used to occasionally adjust my ride height so my 205/45's tucked with no rubbing issues. That said, I definitely need to raise the car.

I was thinking about that. I had another 93' si and painted the molding red to match the car. Looked much nicer. We'll see.. Thanks for the feedback. Does anyone happen to know about the offset quetion?
