Flared Guards civic eg

[blk-boi]

hey was wondering where can i get my guards flared out cause wheels are are camber 2 much + got defected

[damienm]

i dont think by flaring your guards out will stop you from getting defected.

[blk-boi]

so i cant do anything about it??

[damienm]

you can get new wheels lol

[im.Kusuma]

ouuuuftt wtf. thats some sausage dog shit lololol

[niiCk]

^^ haha frans
pm me and we can work something out.
the only thing you can do is flare and camber kit or just change rims..

[MWAKU]

even with flared guards and camber kit, you'll still get defected or pulled over if anything

[blk-boi]

so i cant do anything about it evn thought if i flare da guards and not camber it so much??

[MWAKU]

well you will cop attention no matter what

just run the risk and flare the guards for like 50 a corner and camber it more at the front, and just run your luck

[im.Kusuma]

so i cant do anything about it evn thought if i flare da guards and not camber it so much??
Not really dude, best of the best thing you can do is drive like that and get defected several times, or go for some decent rims which doesnt stick out much like that..
btw what rims u got and specs :p

[blk-boi]

ummmm serz no solution wat so eva

umm there sportmax 513, 15"x8, 0 offset

[Premature Vtec]

There is always solution just flare your guards if u want 2 keep those sportsmax, if not just get new rims. Not a bad eg btw just needs better fitment

[dougie_504]

15x8 holy crap lol

And I thought I have problems on my cars with 205/40/17 on my Civic and 205/50/15 on my CRX.

You got stiff sussy? How do you corner hard/hit road dips?

[vinnY]

i'm pretty sure the defect is more for the fact that you've got some mexican offset going on
the wheels protruding out of the wheel arch

[dougie_504]

^^^ yeah you're right. The Civic wheel arch isn't designed to house that kind of wheel lol.

[vinnY]

15x8 shouldn't be too difficult, the fact that the offset is 0 is the problem

[PHM91]

so even if he gets a camber kit for the front and back its still not legal?

[vinnY]

can you imagine how much camber he'll need to tuck 15x8 +0 inside stock fenders?

gonna look like this guy (http://fatlace.com/hellaflush/wp-content/uploads/2009/09/kyon1.jpg)

[PHM91]

seen it done WaYzor civic , but i was planning on doing the same as he got atm , still get defected?

[MrJohn]

that looks hectic but HAHAHAH!!! jst tell the cop to go get fukd..nah .. i got the same problem but my offset aint 0 LOl just +25 you guys reckon i need to camber it or pump the guards?? are the rear? or just leave it hence my car aint lower just 1 inch drop

[MWAKU]

[vinnY]

like i said earlier, the wheel is protruding out of the wheel arch
no tread-inside-wheel-arch-is-legal loophole in australia as it is in europe

[d15z1SUX]

think u need some bolt on j's racing fenders or the wide fenders, or chargespeed wide fenders.

[SHU-ES1]

nice civic man, like the others have said try flaring and running a camber kit. can you get done for too much camber? wow..

[slimx]

camber kit buddy

[Killa From Manila]

camber kit, roll guards and lower your car more

[2MPRS]

i lold so hard when i saw the car almost had an accident

[dreamshifter]

Awesome rims.

I was wondering, would changing the fronts to 15x7 make it legal?

So 15x8 rear and 15x7 front.

It's the offset not the width.

[Red_EG4]

I had a read through this > Guidelines for alternative wheels and tyres (http://www.rta.nsw.gov.au/registration/downloads/vsi/vsi09_rev4.pdf)

There's a lot that they can get you for, just take a look.

[SPL_K]

Did you get defected at Fairfield next to the swimming pool/tennis court? Cause I saw driving through Canley Vale earlier that day and I got pulled over there but I had an engineers cert and they let me off.

[dreamshifter]

It's the offset not the width.

Sorry forgot to mention 15x7 is +15 offset

[SPL_K]

I'm pretty sure the width of the wheel also affects the offset. If you got a wheel 15x9 and 15x6 with the same offset they wouldn't sit in the same place on the car unless the manufacturer specifically makes the wheels width extend from the inside of the rim and not the outside which is very rare!

[vinnY]

if you had a standard rim width or 6" and whacked on a 9" rim
wheel track total wheel track will have increased by a total of 76.2mm(half it if you want the increase per side)
then depending on wheel offset this will more or less make it stick further in/out from the original rim's position

so if we go back to the op and plug in some simple details into a wheel offset calculator (http://www.1010tires.com/WheelOffsetCalculator.asp)
assuming his stock rims are say 14x5.5 +45 and he's whacked on some 15x8 +0
then the new wheels will stick out 77mm more than standard and take up a further 13mm on the inside

[Reloaded]

ROFL I JUST SAw that car the other day **** it was horrible

[redefine]

if they did that the offset would change...15x9 and 15x6 in the same offset would have a 1.5 inch difference in poke

[Lukey]

get bolt on fender flares or wide body guards.

[na-118]

cars always around chester hill and greenacre panel beaters are LMAO
lmaooo hahahahahahah thats bumblebee shit bro ahaha

[JDM-EGG]

so over sportmax.. lol

[YBJLS4]

why does everyone keep repeating "get flare guards this that get camber get bolt ons" ok we don't need it repeated 50 times in the thread.

and yes, if u run ur 15x7 +15, you'd have more room at the front as long as u still camber it

[blk-boi]

Thanx every1:thumbsup:

i got a sets of rotas rims 15x7

[SPL_K]

You need stretched tyres too if you're going for the low offset/hellaflush stance

[VTC-8OY]

so glad i didnt end up gettin sportmax wheels :p

goodluck ey sorry to hear u got done

[wAYzoR]

If you want any help wit fitting 0 offset, give me a PM and i can give you a few answers, my old eg = 15x8 -0offset, but stated above stretched tires is a start. Heres a few pictures on how mine turned out.
