Who's is this? I just have two questions...got any more pics? And what size are the rims, 15" or 16"?

Oh, and if anyone else has a car similar to this w/Bronze c8's, post it up. Thanks.

Looks like 15's to me....


Yager-

 

Yeah, I kinda thought they did too. But the only reason I ask is cause I know the 15" are only available in 38+ offset...well, it was going to be kind of a two part post, but the second q was going to be about rubbing, or if the 38+ offset is a problem in any way.

I know 40+ to 45+ is recommended for most honda's, and CRX's have smaller wheelwells. So that's why I thought it might be a problem. But otherwise I'm thinking about this same look for my CRX.

Thanks again,

Alex

 

I had 16x7" rims with a +38mm offset using 204/40 tires. They rubbed on the fender lip, I guess if I had it rolled it wouldnt rub anymore. It never rubbed when turning. I would go with a +40 or above offset.

 

that guy was at our meet at Whittier Narrows

 

Here's a few more:


15"

 

how much is the car lowered by? Just wondering, that's all.

 

WOWWEEE!! Now I'm famous just like Katman, my pictures are on the internet.
Those rims are 15" with a +38 offset. 205-50-15 Kuhmo tires. Not sure how much the car is lowered, it has coilovers. In those pictures it had about a 1 finger gap between the fender and tire.
Here's some other pictures, http://www.ravingpsycho.com/commute.htm

 

That looks SO good ( to the car), I never pictured those wheels looking that good on that car. My CRX is exactly the same, but the paint is faded a little bit. So no rubbing problems, or yes it does rub? Thanks for getting back to me by the way, and yes, you are famous!!!

 

Thanks for the compliments.
No rubbing with the C8's and Cumho tires. With my current setup (Shittystreams and Azenis) I do get a little bit of rubbing.

 

What's a C8? Is that a Mugen wheel?

 

they are rota's.


i can run a +35 offset 15x6 and 195/55-15 tires.

 

Damn, 35+ offset? That sounds like it would rub for sure. But no? Wow.

Okay, so if I get 38+ to 40+ with 195/50 15's I will definetly be fine right? I'm dropped on Neuspeed sports/Bilsteins.

man.. that thing is pretty and all but they fat tires need to go... sheesh 's up

 

wtf?! that's my car! haha--that's how it used to look. and it USED to have a ZC. now it's got the C8's in bronzo with 205/55/R15's. they are going to rub crazy style thanks to the camber kit.

big props to the guy who rocks 15 with big sidewalls! low profiles would make 15 look like dayton's.

 

Sorry if I'm not pimpin it wit da mad dope 205-10-15 tires y0. I like to retain the stock overall diameter of the wheel, that's why I run 205-50-15.

 

yeah, it actually rubs a little in the back, but only under HARD cornering. but i don't have any camber kits. i run skunkworks coilovers with KYB AGX shocks. not the best setup..

 

They look a lot like Mugen MF-8s

 

Actually to retain the closest tire diameter to stock, you would need to wrap your wheel with a 195/50/15 rubber . Not a 205/50/15 hehe
If you really want to try some thing different go with a 195/45/15 , and yes they do exist-

2. Michilen pilot SX-GT VR
3. Yokohama AVS Intermediate ZR
