FD2 with honda euro rims

[zimmy83]

just wondering if your fd2 can fit the honda euro rims and tyres??

regards

[FDBenni]

which rims?

[zimmy83]

the standard stock 17inch ones or something...seen a couple of 2nds around so wondering if i could use them instead...

[zimmy83]

of even the subaru rims are pretty nice as well...if i am not wrong we use stud pattern 4x100 right??but are most rims universal since ours is pretty much the norm stud patterns??

[FDBenni]

nah we use 5x114. The euro rims should fit fine but not sure about the subaru rims. The main thing with the euro rims is what offset they are

[fitme]

the 8spoke euro rims has +55 offset..it will look silly without spacer...

[zimmy83]

Ohh so what offset are we looking at usually ?

[DC5.Raven]

Stock FD2 is 17 x 7, +45 Offset.

[Stig]

its been covered already...

Stock accord euro (CL9) rims are 16x6.5 +55

the luxury rims and the sport rims are the same spec: 17x7 +55

quite a high offset, would look for something far lower for FD.

[aero]

They will fit on the fd as long as u remain on stock height or after market springs, if u plan on lowering. They look quite classy. If u plan on lowering on coils tho, u will definitely need spacers for them

[kawai]

are we talking the euros rims which look similar to the type r ones?

also how much are they going for ?

[zimmy83]

ohh...i was just considering those...keeping the car stock with height n all...just the 17" ones will do...

[9ineto5ive]

[9ineto5ive]

got these rims laying around up for sale, dont noe if i msged u about them? if u want pm me for them i got pictures too.

[aero]

is that kevin's old car? wonder who bought that... was it you 9ineto5ive? lol

[zimmy83]

9ineto5ive..pmed ya!!

[Stig]

yes its kevs old car, im kinda getting bored of my car lol

[9ineto5ive]

nah i didnt buy that car, i saw it on carsales tho, was planning to get it but i found another which was at a unbelievable price (Sports model) so yea... but that white fd is nice tho i gotta admit..the euro rims do go with the FD too

[blasdf]

those are different euro rims than i was thinkng of. i was picturing those euro sport ones with more thinner spokes grouped in 2's.

[FDBenni]

yeh the ones that look similiar to the JDM DC5r wheels but in silver, they look pretty nice. I'd assume they would be the same specs as the lux wheels.

[Stig]

same specs, they look pretty avg on a fd though, rather the 07-08 sport rims over those

[9ineto5ive]

euro rims looks good on a FD, i rather have them on then the sports rims well i guess that's my opinion. well when i first saw that picture, that made me bought the FD, its looks slick and all original

[blasdf]

same specs, they look pretty avg on a fd though, rather the 07-08 sport rims over those

yep same here, i did a quick search on the rims i was thinking about befor and agree. don't think they would look as good on the fd, and the ones i currently have i like more than them.

i like the ones you have in your sig as well, the 19's i take you mentioned in another thread. i wouldn't mind 19's on mine seeing my neighbour has a little sl mercedes and recently got some 19" amg's put on his, look really good.

[Stig]

actually the one in my dp is an old pic, they were back then when i had the 20s on lol, havent had time to take a good pic of the current 19s

[zimmy83]

just wondering does the type r 18" rims fit fine on your fd2??do i need to get spacers??standard ride height n all..no change..

[aero]

lol. this has been covered heaps.
the fn2r 18" wheels will fit without spacers on standard suspension. however, if u plan on lowering ur car with coilovers, u will need spacers for them, as +55 is too high of an offset.

[9ineto5ive]

im planning to get the jdm dc5r rims which are +60 offset, with 15mm spacers all round to set it back to oem +45 offset. or maybe even 20mm at back instead i dont know yet anyone have any idea? also anyone know how long the oem wheel studs are?

[curtis265]

yes its kevs old car, im kinda getting bored of my car lol

That's the problem with modding isn't it :(

[Stig]

save the hassle and get a set of dc5s rims? they basically look the same as audm dc5r but in 17s

[aero]

the jdm dc5r rims dont like the dc5s wheels o.o look more like work cr kai.
if the wheels are cheap, then imo, do it. see how it turns out.

[Stig]

ohh he wanted the jdm dc5r ones, i thought audm, my bad

[kawai]

would prelude rims fit in with standard tires also s2000 ones ?

i think the prelude has 114 5spokes and 205/??
