lol, jsut considering my mate's work meisters.

Do you have AUDM brake setup with the ep3 spoon calipers or the JDM brake setup with spoon calipers?

From my own understanding, if ur offset is too high it wont clear the calipers. So i would go more towards the 35 offset.
235 will fit but 225/50 is typically, in my opinion, a better fitment for 8" wheels on a dc5.
In terms of guard rolling, depends on how much camber you have and how low your car is. 235 on 8" i would say guard rolling is definite unless you have a bit of camber.

its audm setup with spoons

You probably mean 225/45 .

Didz is on the money. Lower offsets *usually* have more brake clearance so the +35 is more likely to clear your brakes, although it is a massive unknown because it depends on the design of the hub and spoke area on the wheel.

I have seen 17x8 +35 fit without guard rolling but it will depend a lot on alignment and tyre size. The higher offsets would be safer but might not give you the caliper clearance you need.

the reason i picked the 11r over the xd9 is bcoz of the clearance it has..does anyone have this wheel in similar size on dc5?

17x8 +35 will fit without guard rolling.. with 235/45 tyres that was on my car

awesome!...is ur stock height and stock alignment settings?

camber was -2.5 all around - stock camber adjustment from lowering the car.
front camber was -2.5 with 17x9 +38 with 255/40.

my car was lowered to a finger gap!

Tein Flex sussy!

if you have $$$, I am sure JDM Concept or JDM yard can get them in for you!!
or you can ask Monty where he got his from.. he might give you some ideas

I want to get a set of the OEM Honda JDM wheels for the DC2R, these are the 16 inch ones, has anyone got a set here? (i have no idea if they were ever an option here in Aus) I want to know the tyre size and any thoughts on the difference (if any) they make.

I have a friend who is regularly in Japan, so he can find a set for me at a good price

for eg: if i wanted rays wheels I can have a look at it at mu secret but nothing for works

how do i work out what size hub ring do i need with the new rims?

[plAythiNG]

Guys my current wheel set up is 17x7 +20 with tyres 215/45/17. My camber settings are 0 at the rear, and -1 at the front. My guards are rolled front n rear, and at the front, part of the black plastic fender has been removed so i can roll the fronts. With my current setup, i am still scrubbing at the fronts and harsh cornering, and also at the rear, when i have ppl in the back. My car is sitting on bc
n+ coilovers, with a 1.5 finger gap all around, will include a pic in
10 mins.

Im thinking of getting a set of ce28's in white (17"). Now my question here is wat width/offset/tyre size can i run to ensure no scrubbing at all, in the pack i dnt realy mind, as i never have ppl in the rear, just concerned with the front. I am leaning towards a 8.5" width with a high 30's offset. Any recommendations/opinions?
