Anyone have any rubbing issues with putting 8" wheels on their R? Any size..15, 16, 17, etc...I just need to know if 8" is too wide to tuck.

Yes, I asked a similar question before, but it was too specific. All I am looking for is feedback on any 8" wide wheels Thanks.

 

cut out the fender and put flares on and it should clear.

 

I did on my previous car.

Let me see if I can find a pic.

 

Any rubbing tsaktuo? And I am NOT about to cut out my fender and put flares on it. If that's the case, I'll stick with 7.5" or 7" wheels. I'll roll the lip, but that's it.

 

The Type R looks Naked Without the Emblem

 

way too wide to be practical.

 

My car is the same, I like the look better

 

I am not saying I dont like it, just that it looks naked

 

No rubbing, but i think the car was slightly higher than stock. If that doesn't bother you...then you should be fine.

 

Well, autox wheels are not practical, so I'm not concerned about that. And if I need to adjust ride height, that's fine too.

 

tsaktuo, do u have a pic on the back view of your car with 8"? Just want to see how wide it is...

 

.....i've got some 16x8 FD3S rims. They're relatively light at 12.7 lbs...

I believe 2fcknfst runs these as well with 215/40/r16 tires(?can't remember?) No rubbing problems. I'll try to find the pics and info.

 

I dunno about that... Light and wide, and only .5" wider than some of the other combo's running around. Also, cheap and light and slightly taller for *supposedly* better handling and grip...
