Im gonna be installing my RS-L Ikaris 15x6.5 wheels on my accord. Would 8mm spacers work? Or will I need longer studs? Im gonna install them once my coilovers get here.

Any spacer larger than 5mm requires the use of extended studs

And what do you want the wheels do do? Flush, poke, etc. And what is the offset?

15's are pretty small...

I dont know the offset of the wheels. I just want a wider stance, thats all. Not trying to over kill. Just a clean look. Yes 15's are small...16's are in the near future. I dont mind getting long studs.

Well we do not know the offset. If they are 15x6.5 +55 like the stock V6 wheels 30mm will bring it out close to the fender. You probably won't even notice an 8mm spacer..

How low do you plan to go with the coilovers ?

Find out the offset.. And what do you mean by 'wider stance'? If you find a picture of a set up you like, please post it up so we better understand what you want and therefore be able to offer better advice to you so you don't end up wasting your time and money buying something that doesn't satisfy your goal.

thats why i just sit back and watch! and i see my answer so a 30mm will bring it out? im on fnf type ones and the camber in the rear are just swallowing the tires lol, looks like i dont have any wheels from the rear view, but 30mm is what i should get to just push them out a little bit to the fenders?


p.s sorry not trying to steal this thread

Ummmm if you want a "wider stance" this is not going to work and it's going to look like shit on 15s and 16s....

No size spacer will make it look good, it would actually look better sunk instead of mexi flush.

if you want a wider stance. hold out and get wider wheels.

it's honestly not worth the time & effort to "stance" 6.5 wide wheels let alone 15" wheels.
you'll regret it and be wanting 17+ wheels immediately after.

the first thing you need to do before you buy wheel spacers is know what the offset of the wheels are. without knowing that and just buying some random spacers, it's like driving blindfolded.
