Hi Guys,

Few weks ago i have insalled a 16*7 wheels (offset 25) with 205/45 tires. (on civic si 00)
I dorve the car for 1 day and then returned back to my stock wheels.
The car handled like ****!! Seems the offest highly effect handling..and the tires was hitting the fender on high bumps.
Any one got an idea what is the minimum offset to get for a 16*7 wheels and have the wheels sit inside the fender!
so i can avoid one more time...trial an error offset!!!

 

+35 to +40

look up tire scrub and youll know why our cars are the worst for high offset wheels

 

Like Eso said, your offset is wrong. Switch to wheels with a proper offset, or roll and flare your fenders.

 

 

I'm running 195-55- 15x8 +15 offset and all I had to do was roll my fenders! I try not to take hard *** dips cus of course ill rub in the rear but other than that I'm good! I should have some pics of my car if you look on my page can't upload pics of my phone don't know why!
