Wanted to pic up some RPF1's was unsure about the size, now I'm sure I can run 16's on 50's. Nice, thanks for the quick response man.

No rubbing with normal driving. I've only had minimal rubbing when turning close to full lock over larger bumps, etc.

Nice, what are you lowered on? Did you get a camber kit?

J/w, how do you have so much wheel gap with F&F coil overs? I mean no offense by this, I'm just curious, because on mine, without adjusting the preload, I can't go much higher in the back.

I want to deep dish my Accord, now that I found SSR rims that would allow me to do that and they're pretty light. I still want to run 16's but I want 16x8's. What do you think the offset shoudl be? Here are the rims.

It depends on what look/function you're going for. I don't know much about offsets. If you want to find out if they'll fit, look for pics of other people using similar sizes, or find an offset calculator.

That's good. You will have negative camber if you lower it. The angle changes depending on height alteration of course. A certain degree is tolerable, provided you have a good alignment.
