Default 16x7 +33 on a lowered R, will they fit?

I'm lowered on H&R sports

Anyone have any pics and/or experience w/ a very similar setup?

The wheels are about 2g's, so I want to make sure they won't rub

This is a really broad question, this really depends on what size tire you will be running, how low the car really is...ect. If you car is now stupidly low, this wheel size is perfect.

If u go with 205/45s they will work fine. With 215s, u might rub a little here and there. In any case, u would not rub ur wheels, just tires.

If your car is *not (corrected) stupidly low, this wheel size is perfect. Sorry for the typo, but no need to get your panties in a bunch bro, just trying to help. 16x7 +33 is great fitment, youll get a nice stance. ^What BlazedD said aka baller aka volk king.

Caseys ITR

16x7 33

iirc he was running 205's, fenders were not rolled, but I believe he had at least 3 degrees of camber in the rear...

I bet that handled like it was on rails. This thread will help me decide on what size wheels and offset to buy in the future.

Stock the Integra gains more camber in the front than the rear. My 94 Civic (same geometry) has -2.5*f & -1.5*r camber being lowered about 2.5-2.75 inches (1 finger gap on 205/40/16) with all stock control arms. To me, that Integra looks like it has slightly less camber in the front than my Civic.

You guys shouldn't have any trouble with 16x7 +33 & 205/40/16 (or even a taller 45 series). Here is an Integra with 16x8 +20 205/40/16. I'm just wish I knew if he had to roll the fenders and/or increase negative camber from stock:

My bad bro,

I thought you were calling me out for wanting to be "hellaflush" or something (by saying if I were stupid low then this stupid offset would be perfect). Completely my mistake

Thanks everyone for the replies. As far as suspension geometry goes, I figure the +42's would be a better choice for a track used R, but my ricer side loves the look of the +33's (ce28n's)

No worries bro, I had 16x7 +42 on my ITR and I liked it but if I were to do it again I would def. go for +33 youll get a much "flusher" look with your fenders. Either way cant go wrong, post some pics up yof whatever you choose!

Imho, u can't go wrong with either +33 or +42. If u want to just throw the wheels on and do no adjustments then go with +42, but if u want a little flusher look then u can go with +33. Concavity wise, there is no significant difference in 33/42 5 lug 10 spoke ce28ns since the width unchanged. I'll even throw a pic or two of x8 in.

Some pics for illustration..

16x7 +42





16x7 +33





16x8 +35





Hope that helps some.

I have 16x8 with +15 offset on my teg. I had to roll the front fenders just a tad to fit, definatly needed a camber kit in the rear and a slight roll as well, but they fit nice,

Sounds like +33 wouldn't rub w/ 205/45's and a mild drop

Throw them on and get some pics. I would love see them on your R. I'm about to test fit a set of old school 17x7 215-45-17 Works Ryver on mine. I'm hoping not to have to roll the fenders.

I know that tire size will not work in the rear with a 16x7 +45. I had those wheels on my spoons and I am not slammed by any means and the tire rubbed against the tire well.

Here is how low my car is. I have about a finger gap or so all the way around.

225s will rub on 16x7 +42 so they will def. rub on x8 +35. Those r 225/50s mounted on the silver x8 ce28s and they r sticking out of the fender liner as well.

With enough camber this will be okay. I'm running 15x8 +40 with 225's and I still have a few mm of space even though I am not running much negative camber at all. May rub the two front frame rails though.
