i have a 99 civic hatch and im looking at getting some new wheels. i want to be able to slam the car as low as i can and i need to know which setup i should get:

15x6.5" +45mm 195/50

15x6.5" +40mm 195/50

which one will have the LEAST amount of rubbing on a slammed car??

thanks

the 15x6.5 45mm offset is better but slamming it is useless. I know you will smash the upper strut towers and also the car won't handle that well cause it will be just too low.

 

well actually its not slammed. i have the tein basic dampers and they only lower like 2.75-3 or something like that.

 

even at that height you will notice the front shock towers develop a dent in them or even a hole.

 

ive never heard of or seen that happen but, whatever.

 

I have 15x6.5 TE-37's w/205's 39mm and it rubs like a bitch on my coupe.
