Wheel fitment guide - offsets and widths

[Chris]

This is a work in progress and will be updated over time. None of this is from my own experience, but from posts I've seen on Facebook. Your results may vary, so please check if unsure. This topic is aimed at filling the arches, so I won't go into Honda OEM sizes.

Obviously a lot depends on tyres size/brand, amount of camber so this is just a rough guide. Please post your own experiences and I can add them to this post.

Fits without reported issues:
18x8J ET48 square fits
18x8.5J ET52 square fits - widely reported as the 'ideal' setup.

May require arch roll:
18x8J ET42
18x9J ET35 front/18*9J ET50 rear
18x8.5J ET43 with 225/40 R18 AD08 rubs on rear slightly and fronts on full lock

My 2p

Fit with no issues and a little more space to boot.

YES, I am aware the car needs raising

Thanks Chris. :-D

I test fitted a set of evo 8 mr enkei wheels to my fd
17"x8" et38. Fitment was perfectly flush with the arches. Looked good but the square 235 r1r tyre I have fitted rubbed the rear arch.

Thanks, any issues on the front under full lock?

 

[Richo]

Not that I noticed. Seemed fine on the front

I can confirm that 18 x 8.5 ET +52 is the perfect setup for the FD, my CE28 fills the arches perfectly and makes the stance look lower, no arch modding required.

Update on the 18×7.5+48

Went for a blip this morning with Minor scrubbing with suspension travel over bumps/uneven road. No scrubbing under hard cornering or lock.

How much clearance between the wheel and caliper?

I just ordered enkei rpf1 18x8 35 offset. Ive asked around and google specs, should be a good fitment.

Any thoughts on those specs guys?

 

[Chris]

Might be a bit pokey, especially on the rear.

8x18 et45 fits perfect too as i have team dynamics pro race on, and also confirm 8.5x18 et52 is also ok as my rays ce28 fit with no rubbing also.
