Hi guys,

finally I made it into the Honda family with the purchase of my EF Civic GL. Firstly, I must admit that I am very impressed with the car. Secondly, I would like to ask a question on a particular set of wheels that I might be putting on it. I found a really nice deal for a set of Watanabe/SSR RS-8. They need a bit of a refurbishment but the most thing that is worrying me is that their offset is +47, since my car sits quite low. Do you guys think that it would be a problem to fit them on the Civic. Other specifications of the wheels are 15*6.5J.

Looking forward to hear from you.

Regards,

Chris.

 

This might help you out, as I don't know what your current tires are, just plug in the information here and it will show you.

+47 on a 6.5" wheel is fine. I run +42 with a 7" wide wheel. keep in mind the lower the number the further out the offset.
