Default Hatch with +36 offset 15x7 rims

Will 15X7" +36 Offset rims clear with 195/55/15 race rubber?

I have a eg hatch motorsport car. I am wanting to run 15x7 +36 offset rims with 195/55/15 tyres.

Will there be any rubbing issues or will I need to run camber to the car low</TD></TR></TABLE>

If you don't roll the rear fenders, it might rub lightly back there if you're tucking tire and haven't added additional camber. My 16x7 42 offset came very close in the back, but I was also using 205/45-16 tires, which should be slightly wider than the 195/55-15s.

i have +35 15x7 w/ 195-50-15
fenders are definitely rolled..
imo rolling ur fenders is a must for any lowered honda

but yeah, not much rubbing,
I need to be careful with sharp tuns up driveways, and sometimes hear some rub when I hit potholes or whatever... but for the most part it's all good

15x7 +35's running 205/50/15's with a LARGE rim lip guard. Pulled and rolled to go this low. No rubbing, but it was a good amount of work pulling/rolling.



With one finger gap all the way around I didn't need any rolling/pulling. You should be fine depending how low you plan on going.

Ok, I'll ask. how do you "pull" a fender to get more clearance? I've flared fenders, but am unfamiliar with pulling them.

i understand it as simply just that, pulling them out. You can get a good bit of flex just from pulling.

If you want to take it further unbolt the bolts and pull it all the way out and bolt it back down
