Default Civic EK, people who did not choose for ET45...

Ok so We all know that Civic EK's got an ET45 offset.

I am willing to buy new wheels for my hatchback. But there are few wheels I like wich have ET45.

I'm a bit scared if I buy a lower offset that the car will handle worse. Plus it's not so healty for the wheel bearings. It may look better a lower offset but I want to keep the cars handeling.


For what offset did you choose? And are you happy with the comfort for daily trips and faster trips?

thanks all!!

Default Re: Civic EK, people who did not choose for ET45...

anything from +38 to +44 will be fine..

i have also used +32 to +37 offset for long periods of time w/o any issues. its just once you go sub +38 you may have issues with rubbing depending on vehicle height and camber adjustment and whether you are running the correct tire size or not.
