Default Wheel fitment question..

I got a 97 civic 4 door

and im getting the enkie rpf1 with with 205-50-15s

They sent me 2 +35 offset and 2 +41 offset


Has any tried a similar set up?

Any problems & how did you run it?

What on the back and what on the fronts?

Different car (DC5R) but I run staggered widths and offsets on both the street and the track. No issues.

However since you have the same width front and rear I would endeavour to get the same offsets so you can rotate the wheels/tyres front to rear easily and with no handling changes, however slight.

If you decide to run the wheels you have then put the +35s on the front. It is unlikely that your car has so much front grip that it can't benefit from a little more due to a slightly wider front track.

Thanks for the input ChargerR
