I have a 98 civic sedan I'm building and I want to run 15x8 +25's I plan on lowering it and I do know I'll more than likely need to roll the fenders... what I want to know is will I need wheel spacers and if so what kid of spacers? Thanks in advance for the info/responses
i’m assuming he was thinking the lower offset he may hit the calipers with the wheels maybe?
yes I was.... I've never had wheels with an offset like this... I've always bought wheels the same dimensions and offset of what I had on the car originally give or take wheel size but always the same offset cause I know nothing of + or - camber so I've always stuck to original offset
If the wheels are going to stick out (and they will), why do you think you would need wheel spacers ?
because I've never run wheels with an offset that's wasmt to factory spec... the one time I ran 17's the offset was the same as factory.... i want to try something different to me seeing as I've never done this before... I've never done camber or anything only motor swaps and such so I'm branching out of what I know and wheel offset and camber is something I know nothing of... of my wheels scraped or rubbed or anything in the past i jusi traded em and put the camber and height back to factory... I'm branching out to new things to me and figured ...who better to ask than the group of you all.
well you won’t need spacers, those will clear just fine.
what size tires are you going to run and how low are you going to be?
no idea yet... I dont want the biggest but I refuse to run lo profiles ... and maybe a 2 inch drop at most its basically a daily for my kid to be able to ride in but aesthetically pleasing for me as well so no go fast just low n slow
