15X8 +15mm offset, any issues?

[Steven.]

plan on getting some 15X8 with 15mm offset for my 91 crx.
the crx will be lowered, about 1.5-2 inch, plan to run 205/50/15 tires.

might there be any rubbing issues with this set up?

yep. Make sure your suspension is real stiff so you can limit whatever bouncing you do on the road cause that will rub for sure

put a lil negative camber on it and you should be fine.

nah i dont think so...


15 offset is really low. modifications are gonna have to be made

it isnt that low, i know guys running 15x8 +0 and their tucking with a tiny bit of camber.

 

[BlackHopeDC5]

but are they civics.... 0 offest on a civic is all the way out..

maybe so... but i am running 15x7.5 with a 38 offset.. no camber kit

and i am barely making it.. and thats with 195 tires.. stiff springs are the only thing keeping me from rubbing

 

[lilwhitecoupe]

blackhope your a brave soul running that with stiff springs..... i would go with probbaly like a 40-42 offset if you can..

 

[Steven.]

i was goign to do 15X8 0 offset, but decided to go with 15x8 with +15(half of stock civic offset btw)

 

[Mr. Lin]

15x8 et15 on a 205?

30 is not stock civic offset..i believe 45 is

 

[Mr. Lin]

30 is not stock civic offset..i believe 45 is

i thought it was 42

 

[BlackHopeDC5]

i thought it was 42

somthing like that... i know its not 30 though

o gosh...gotta love the vortex....

but yeah bro..you'll definitly be stretched and poked.

 

[Steven.]

ok i can get some 215/50/15s to run if i had to

rims i want to run.

those come in 15X8, +15mm offset.

my other option i was thinking.

now those coem in 15X8, 0 offset.

i guess i will have to run option 2, same as above, but with +38mm offset:

they just dont look as good as the ones with the lower offset and only 15x7

 

[Steven.]

foudn some pics sport max 501s 15X8 +15mm

 

[BlackHopeDC5]

that looks sick and stupid at the same time.. Green i think you should get that but somthing with a higher offset. That looks good but its extreme

 

[Steven.]

if i get 15X8 with teh +35, it changes the entire look of the rim.

ill either roll the fenders or get flares.
that guy is running 195/45s im going with 205/50
and i dont think mine will be that low.

 

[Steven.]

still shots

the more i look at it, the more i want.

 

[civicwithjdm]

how did you put those rims on your car does it rubb because i just bought some axis 15x8 and im not sure if it fits ok do i have to do a flare fender i also have a integra conversion on the back would i have to change it back dose your front rubb i dont know because my car is not dropped yet and havent put it on the car yet too
