Hey People Of Honda Tech and the RSX,DC5 & EP3 Forum,

I am a new 2002 White EP3 owner and have done a few minor upgrades.
I am in the process of doing a rim upgrade but I am stuck and need your HELP!!!!!!!!

I have recently obtained a set of 4 5ZIGEN GN+ BRONZE 17x7.5 with a 43mm OFFSET.

Here is the problem they are an 8 lug universal bolt pattern but the wheels where only bored for the 4x114.3 pattern not the 4x100.

If I use a 15mm wheel adadapter with a 43mm offset rim what will the offset be? (I am running adapters because I am not tracking the car and I can not replace this rims for what I got them for I got them for free)

Will this be good to run? I think the stock offset of the 02 EP3 is 30mm

PLEASE HELP!!!
I NEED VERY DETAILED ANSWERS WITH NUMBERS AND FIGURES

Thanks for helping

 

OK Here is an update.. On My Post

So I am scrapping the wheel adapter idea all together.. If I put the adpater on the offset will be about 28mm - 30mm and the wheels will stick out 3/4 - 1 inch.. ( NOT THE LOOK I AM GOING FOR AT ALL)

I have been talking with some wheel and rim people they recomended tuner lugs!!!!

If this do not work I will have for sale 4 5ZIGEN GN+ Bronze wheels......

 

Here is the last update..

I have found a machine shop to machine tapered ends on the 4x100 holes on the wheels...

This should work perfect it will cost about $40 a rim...
So 17x7.5 Bronze 5Zigens for about $200

 

The offset for the stock 15x6 wheels is +45

 

personally i think even with that spacer you wouldnt be too bad unless you had DC5R arms
