I have an EF and am considering some 16's... Thinking 16x7, but I don't know what offset to get... Anyone running this combination? I'm already lowered 2"+ Dunno exactly because the car was like this when I got it.

My question is what offset should I use? What tire size should I use to keep the same (or nearly the same) rolling diameter? Anything else I should know or be aware of?

Thanks.

The link you posted suggests the tires which will match the wheels, but what about offset? Also, I could possibly go with a wider tread than they suggest - that's why I wanted opinions of what people had tried and liked/ disliked.

I don't trust them to tell me the offset that will fit...

Anyone?

 

I had 16x7 Rota N1R's on my CRX a few years back and they rubbed whenever I turned hard. I believe the offset was 35mm. The tires were 205/45/16 Toyos. Even with the fenders rolled, the tires still rubbed, especially when I had a passenger. I'd say get something with at least an offset of 42mm. I got Type-X's now, so no more rubbing.

when i called to order some volks, they said the offset was 42mm just to let you know.
