Personally I like Sprint Hart, Watanabes and MR5's. Rims are quite a personal thing for an enthusiast though IMO.

Good idea mate, stick to something either 6" or 6.5" wide, with offset 35+ or up to 45+. Just to avoid issues with scraping guards. My experience is that 15x7 + 35 scrubs my guards on my CRX and 17x7 + 40 scrubs guards on my Civic.


Otherwise I don't mind 949Racing 6UL but I think they need to be at least 16" otherwise they look a little weak, kinda 'spindely' coz the spokes are thin and the diameter of the rim isn't big enough to give it that long-spoke finesse. Personally I prefer shorter, thicker spokes like the MR5 or the Motegi FF6.


Google 'Motegi FF6' mate, you might like them.

hey man thanks not really my style and im more into the 15's and maybe 14's

i was thinking of the sport maxes with low profile tyres to clear the guard a bit :) if not then the axis old school coz its +25 offset whilst the sport maxes are +15 from JDM yard. i like the 6ULS alot but dam the rims are like the more then the price of sportmaxes rim and tyre combo. and the mugen the seem alright and price seems alright on second hand ones. watanabes i lovebut hard to find in 15's and 14's with 4x100 stud pattern and if there is pretty pricey lol, and the sprint harts and equip 03 i havnt seen much around i like the equip 03 seems simular to the axis old skool

LOL why would you want it stretched man? lol its not comfortable and looks stupid if ur car isnt dumped to its tiiiits.
I was using 195/50 for my project d's and right not im using same size for my axis with a tad stretched.

so it can go under my car LOL coz if u think abt it i dont know what sus i got but 16's wont fit on, it wont move the car and the front splash guard cracked lol so iw anna be on the safe side of 15's stretch :)

LOL and stretched isnt safe when u swing ur car around corners.. did u think about that? lol
and ur car isnt that low.. seriously lol my car right now is 3.5" drop at the front and 3.2" drop at the back (according to coils)
front scrubs when i have a passenger .. other than that its fine. Only scrubs the inner plastic guards though

- Go for 2.5" drop all round with pedders or coils if ur a baller
- Get rims thats above +30 offset (my recommendation)
- Get rims between 14" - 16", not too wide not too thin, i think 7" wide is fine.
- Get average size tyres..

LOL and stretched isnt safe when u swing ur car around corners.. did u think about that? lol
and ur car isnt that low.. seriously lol my car right now is 3.5" drop at the front and 3.2" drop at the back (according to coils)
front scrubs when i have a passenger .. other than that its fine. Only scrubs the inner plastic guards though

- Go for 2.5" drop all round with pedders or coils if ur a baller
- Get rims thats above +30 offset (my recommendation)
- Get rims between 14" - 16", not too wide not too thin, i think 7" wide is fine.
- Get average size tyres..

ohhh coz i was thnking of this LOL http://www.ozhonda.com/forum/showthread.php?136006-15-x-8-25-offset-for-sale.

it may be lowered but its not dropped, doesn't matter if it 'looks' dropped or not, its not low enough for 16" wheels not to fit unless theyre running retarded tyres and theyre ridiculously wide, you might of just bought the wrong type of wheels period too..
looks at cars that are really low running natural camber like im.kusuma and he can still run the axis OG's, its either ur cars messed up or the wheels were just a stupid buy man, but to me, it doesn't sound like height was ur issue with the wheels

Brand on coils has a difference compared to non-brand/shit branded ones... If u wanna get coils, get skunk2 or bc coilovers.. Or if u wanna save money, go for spring and shock combo..

yes you can get height adjustable spring + shock combo, but if your going to spend anywhere near that much your best off just buying coils, save you the time and trouble..

BC coilovers are great for the price. NEW TOO.
