Default Ordered new wheels/tires/spacers



Okay, so I just ordered a set of 16x7 (+35) MB Motorsport Competitions (Atech Finalspeeds) with 205/50/16 Yokohama AVS ES100s.

My 15mm H&R spacers just came in, too. I actually ordered the spacers a couple of weeks ago, when I still had my 18x7 (+40) wheels.

So, if I end up using the rear spacers, my offset will be +20 in the rear. I wonder if that'll rub with the 205s and the +35 wheels (I hope not; if so I'll sell 'em).

Can't wait!

I've got a +21 offset on a 7 inch wide wheel in the rear of my xB (+31 wheel and 10mm shim) and am FAR from rubbing. You will have no problems.

I was trying to remember your specs. I couldn't remember if you had a +31 as your overall offset or if you had +31s with a 10mm spacer for +21.

On a side note, I'll be in the NW Burbs of the Cities this weekend visiting friends. We'll be in the Civic, though (if you see a silver Civic lowered, wheels, ehxuast with WI plates that's us!).

Well, they do indeed fit, and they don't rub. I LOVE the look!

I don't have any really good photos yet (just got them on, plus the car is really dirty). Here's a photo of what the +20 offset looks like from the rear, though.



+35 up front:


One crappy photo of most of the car (also featuring my new Espelir exhaust)
