I have an Ej8 and its lowered on coilovers. The front is tucked and the tail is just in the wheel well ....Now my question is I want to get the Nitto Neo gens in 205 50 15 will that fit wit it being that low or do i need to raise it in the back a little? I dont want the tires to rub on the wheel well.

I had 17s and the would rub on the outter wall until I raised it a little. I cant really remember what size the rubber was tho...can anyone help me....

I tryed to postin the wheels & suspention area but I am not allowed!!

Thanks in advance

 

205 50 15 tires should fit your ej8 just fine. but the offset of the wheels that you have will make a difference whether or not they rub the wheel wells.

 

Ok cool

Bump anyothers??

Civic2000EX said it loud and clear. You shouldn't need any other opinions, it's straight forward. 205/50R15 is fine as long as the offset on your wheels allow enough clearance. What wheels are you on?

 

gt-3

 

offset?

I will have to say that regardless of wheel offset, if you are riding that low your tires will rub somewhere -- either on the inside when you turn or on the fender/liner when you hit a bump. I just put my koni/gc setup on my ej8 and after letting the dampers settle, there was practically a no-finger gap there. tires = 205/50r16 and it would rub after hitting only a mild bump. A moderate bump caused my UCAs to hit in the fender so I quickly drove back home and raised it up to half a finger gap. Still rubs over bumps with the firmest damper setting.

Long story short, if you're tucked in the front, you're going to rub or hit your UCAs.
