Congrats man, your car is the perfect example of how wheels make or break a car and in your cars case they absolutle make the car IMO.

I was just thinking about it and there has certainly been more TW ROTM's than any other color.

You said it. This set of works makes the 8th set of rims i've had on it, and by far, the set i've owned the longest without selling lol.

Yeah I noticed your in no rush to get rid of these wheels, if I were you I wouldn't be either.

I mean don't get me wrong the other wheels you had on your car were nice wheels and looked better than stock. But these wheels look far better IMO.

I know there 18's but just out of curiosity what is their width and offset f you don't mind me asking?

purvertedmunk · 10-05-2007, 01:26 AM

sexy... too sexy... damn

haha. it was a secret forever, but i' dont mind sharing the wealth. I realized its open knowledge, but goodluck finding some more!^* haha.
18x8 with 46 offset. I dont' rub at all, dropped on S-techs, with HFP.

Hmm I'm surprised to hear the offset is that high, I was expecting something closer to +40mm. I guess the +46mm explains the no rubbing. I have been a considering a 17 x 8 +37mm, I know its a bit aggressive but with a 195 size tire they should work without rubbing.

BTW, you don't have any clearance issues with your struts or springs?

perfect-clone · 10-06-2007, 09:47 AM

Love that front lip. Sweet ride!!!

None at all. I only have about a 1/4"-1/2" clearance between the backside of the rims and the suspension. Not very much at all, i was actually surprised the wheels fit barely. I was planning on getting spacers, but i ended up not needing them.

si_civic · 10-06-2007, 11:19 PM

Congrats!

:CRIES: As no one nominates me

Thats moronic. You can EASILY run a 225/45 or even a 215/45 tire.

berlinas2k2 · 10-07-2007, 12:43 PM

^^ agreed jeshua. He could run either of those tires.

NEVER RUN A 195 tire...EVar!
