Springs and Tire size? - 8thAccord

spdline2g · 01-29-2008, 03:49 AM

Anyone know what springs should I get if I end up getting a rim that is a 20x8.5 with a 245/35/20? someone told me that it might rub, even if i go with just a sport springs like H&R 1.5 front and 1.3 rear?

20,s huh wow. I was thinking a 19 would fit pretty close with a drop. Id almost bet those 20's would rub for sure!

there is a guy on 8thcivic running 20s on his civic,

I haven't seen much as far as aftermarket sizing yet to know what offsets will be ok/not ok.

19"s would fit but you'll gonna have to drop the car too much to get rid of the gap. I have a sedan so maybe if it was a coupe then dumpin it more would be ok. I dont wanna sacrifice the ride. Choices choices we have to deal with huh....

big wheels, but they look nice. I can't imagine the ride though... pretty rough? I take it pot holes isn't an issue

the ride is ok but ofcourse its not lowered yet, just waiting on H&R or Eibach to realease the springs.

Supposedly they came out allready, but I cant find a place to buy them. Just a part number on Eibachs homepage.
