Will these rims be ok

i know they will rub a little right?

will they rub enough to damage?

 

are you lowered? how wide are the rims? what size tires are you using?

 

is your car lowered, if not, they you dont have a problem, the only problem you will have is that you will be riding high,BIG wheel gap

if its lowerd, depends how low it is..i have 17" wheels with a 1.8 inch drop and i dont have any problems

 

well i was gunna not lower it and get the 17 to fill the wheel wells and it would be better budget wise

i dont have a car yet just getting all parts sorted out to budget

wuts a wheel gap?



i was looking at these

copy and paste the whole thing to the address bar

and i was thinking of some low profile tires

Nail's Edit: fixed the link for ya

 

i like those wheels a lot. they'd be sweet on basically any civic.

wheel gap is the visual open space between the tire and the well. it doesnt really affect handling, but it looks better when you have less of it. like you said, you want to 'fill the well' more but with stock suspension it really wont look much different.

not much wheel gap (lowered):

too much wheel gap (not lowered):

the lowered one looks better right?




ps. sorry tony...best example

 

yea i wanted to drop it from the start wuts a good drop for 17 inch wheels

a link would help alot for were to buy it

how much would it cost to install?

i will do this depending apon how much it costs

i did calculate my budget and if all goes as planned in the next year i will have around 2-3 thousand dollars to put into the car

thanks for the help with everything nails

 

with 17 inch wheels a 1.5-1.75 inch drop looks amazing.

look on ebay for H&R sport springs.

install is easy. you should do it yourself.

what exactly are you buying that runs you 2-3k?

 

well i have alot in mind

I/h/e

tinted windows

springs

lip

wheels and tires

underglow

lambo doors (lol maybe but i love em)

those nice slvanstar lights


and other stuff i dont really know yet i would like to throw more under the hood but it wont payoff rite now cause i will be going to college in 2 years and leaving my car behind for the first year and im not going to be racing people maybe just my friends

 

mmm i wouldnt get all IHE...at the price of a good IHE setup you could boost.

underglow is pointless if you're looking at getting lips.

lambo doors are probably the worst money you will spend ever (unless you're spending over 1.5k on the hinges alone). theyre hard to install, harder to maintain, and theyre a pain in the *** to get in and out of.

 

hmm i true but i dont really need boost it will be costly and will not need that much, maybe i have to see im not really shure yet maybe my second or 3rd year with the car i will put it in

lambo doors i am still on the edge with and i agree with u on all those i just love them, and i would be spending alot on the not the cheapo ones

underglow is fairly cheap and wuts the difference between putting underglow on with a bodykit and a lipkit?

i am still thinking about alot of things and i greatly appreciate these comments cause i can use all the help i can get
