Hey everyone,

I'm going to pick up a set of Enkei RPF-1 15" 4x100 for my eK. But I don't know if I should go with the 35 offset or the 41 offset.

Someone please let me know which one would ride and tuck better.

Thanks

 

You never mentioned the car they were going on, nor the ride height.

 

if u are not planning on a big brake upgrade then go with 41 offset either with 195/50 or 205/50(195/55) depending on year of EK

taken from faq:

'What size tires should I get?

The proper size depends on your car, not just the wheels you are using.

pre-'96 Civic, the following sizes are usually best:


15" - 195/50-15


'97-00 Civic, the following sizes are usually best:


15" - 195/55/15, 205/50-15'

 

Sorry about the missing info. Im riding on Neuspeed Race Springs (f=2.5 r=2.25) with Koni Red Shocks.

The car is a 97' Ek Hatch with GSR 4 disc brakes.

 

Any 1 ?

 

+41

 

15x? you could go with a 35 offset for a more aggressive look

 

I don't know what to do, people are saying 41 or 35 I don't know. How would each sit?

Flush or Sticking out?

Would I have wheel clearance issues?

They only come in 15x7.

+35 will get you close to the fender. Could you run it? Certainly. But, for a nice size tire, I'd recommend against it.

but yeah.. for most ppl a 35 offset will be doing too much... a 41 you can lower more without rubbing issues and you can tuck the tires. with a 35 you wont be able to tuck without rolling fenders but it looks alot better


but back to the original person asking this... do what you want.. a 35 will be really flushed but you wont be able to lower a whole lot.. a 41 wont flush as much .. it will tuck inside more....
