what is the smallest wheel I can fit on my ef with 11" rotors?

 

probably a 15" but it might need some weird offset

 

with my Wilwood kit I used 17" BBS RC's , they were great, but my stock 15" wheel would not work. I would guess a 16 would work and maybe a 15 with some crazy offset, but not likely.

Hope that helped

 

yeah i think u will need something greater than a 38 offset like 40+ with a 15" rim

 

Im sure alot of 15" wheels will fit. Search in the roadrace/autox section, I know this has been talked about many times over there.

Or contact fastbrakes.

 

I have 15" Konig Heliums. I forget the offset though. I think it's 40+.

 

15" wheel with a 40 offset will fit. I have a 38 offset and had to run a 2mm spacer. correction sorry i have the 12.2 kit so yours should fit easily

 

You can fit the 14 inch Team Dynamics wheel, as far as 15s goes they are quite a few that fit, it depends more on spoke design than offset, do a search.

Huh?

+38mm with a 2mm spacer is effectively a +36mm offset.

A numerically higher offset means the wheel will be positioned farther inboard in relation to the hub.

 

how much s that kit and what comes in it? where could i get it other than wilwood.com

 

11" rotors with 15" +35

My bad wheel off sets arnt really my stong point

 

One 15" wheel that WON'T fit are the Enkei RPF1's.

 

This all depends on the 11" kit you're running. If you're running stock calipers there are a ton of wheels that will fit. If you're running the wilwood calipers you're extremely limited. I have found few wheels that fit (without using a ridiculous amount of spacers thus causing fender rubbing issues because you're a 30+ offset).

My street wheels are Volk CE28N's, 15x7, 42+ offset with 5mm spacers (total of 37 offset).

My track wheels are Team Dynamics, 15x7, 40 offset, no spacer.

The team dynamics have a TON of clearance and the volks have quite a bit of clearance too. Some wheels that don't fit are as follows:

-15x7, 38+ Mugen RNR's
-15x6.5, 38+ Rota Grids
-15x7, 40+ Rota Slipstreams


*Please note that all of my comments are in regards to the wilwood calipers. If you're running stock calipers all of the above mentioned wheels fit.

haha i should have been more specific. I'm wondering if they fit. I started the thread. They have a 45mm offset and I have not purchased the big brake kit yet.

 

sorry man, thought u were some1 chiming in trying to sell junk, i didnt recognize the name as the op.

 

I noticed someone said the +38 offset RNR's didn't fit... Does anyone know if +38 MR5's would fit? That's what I currently have.

Id highly doubt any 15inch MR5 would fit, but dont quote me

 

**** I really wanted to get that Wilwood kit too...
Can anyone confirm?

Based on the looks of the MR5, I'm going to guess they won't fit. It's my educated guess too as I have tried several wheels over my wilwood calipers. It's all about spoke design and the MR5's are rather flat.

you didn't need to shave the caliper at all?!

 

so 99 civic si wheels... you think yes? with the +45 offset
