oh yeah, I made my fr camber UCA's fit by grinding the end to fit and taken a 20lb sledge hammer to my fender.

I hate having holes there!

Any modifications to fit 8thgen si wheels on a 2000 accord coupe? Some have told me I might need 5 mm spacers in front. Is this true?

I bought some 18x9.5 +40 wheels. 225/40 tires would be good, right? I've got some 215s on my x9 wheels and i feel like a 215 on a x9.5 would be too much of a stretch especially sense I don't plan on tucking tire. My main concern is how bad the tire would rub the fender on the fronts. Front fenders are already pulled. Thoughts?

I think with that offset you'll be safe with a 225

Hey guys, Im a complete rim noob and i'd like to know whether i'd need anything (oe. spacers/offsets) to have this rolling on my car. I have stock springs and I don't think i'll be running coils in awhile. Lastly, what do you guys think about this? Is it not good? too heavy, chances on bending etc?

Summary:
1-picture - below
2-ride hight - stock
3-camber - stock
4-wheel size - 17" I don't know anything else aside from this.. http://www.adrwheels.ca/msport.html
5-wheel offset - how do i find this from the wheels i'm buying? Im going to buy the wheel below.
6-tire size - im putting 215-45-17

At your height i think you should be fine Jonathan. 225/40 on 9.5+40 should be good.

I am approximately at a one finger gap all around on a coupe v6. Will I have any difficulty fitting RPF1s with the size 17x9 +35 offset? Any recommendations for tire size with my current setting? I was thinking 225/45/17, however wasn't sure if it would close the gap entirely or leave room.

Wheels should fit, if the spokes clear.

Woulda gone 215, but tires should work.

Used, right? Borrow them and see what happens first.

I ended up running a spacer front to clear my brakes, but they only cost me $10. Using washers worked first, lol.
