they fit just fine.

no worries.

**truflip** · 06-01-2008, 09:16 PM

Yea, I've seen many people do it without any spacers.
It's the Si wheels that have a very small clearance.

r18lx · 06-01-2008, 09:30 PM

well is it the 16 inch or the 17 inch wheels? you shouldn't have any problems... i have the 16 inch wheels and have no clearance problems...

You can use them, but they stick out further. It bothered me so i bought new lugs from Summit racing.com

I got these
Gorilla Automotive 38433N - Gorilla Wheel Lock Systems - summitracing.com

They're shorter and they're locking.

Greekplaya020 · 06-01-2008, 11:37 PM

oh ok...now where about the stock rsx=s tires..? will those cause any problems or do i need to get tires?

asndragonboii · 06-01-2008, 11:40 PM

The stock rsx tires will work if they still have tread left. You can get new tires if you want

Greekplaya020 · 06-02-2008, 06:50 PM

wow that looks awesome...i had one mroe final question about the wheels. if they have any scratches or any little curb rash how do i fix that? what should i buy?

r18lx · 06-02-2008, 07:01 PM

theres a couple threads here or on the net, most people just sand there rims down after they get to scratched up and repaint them or powder coat them...

Greekplaya020 · 06-02-2008, 11:40 PM

do the s2000 wheels fit without spacers on an R18 too or not?

Aside from dropping all the money for powdercoating, is there a touch-up paint that nearly matches the Type S wheel?

r18lx · 06-03-2008, 06:04 PM

yeah, theres touch up paint i'm pretty sure but for me the scratches don't bother me much plus its hard to scratch the 16inch Type S wheels...
