16x8 +33 offsets fits ek?

[boy180]

hey guys,

quick question, would the specs of the wheels 16x8 +33 offsets fit an ek hatch?
would anyone know about the clearance it would have?
obviously with the wide wheel setup, it's recommended to roll the guards too..
mind, front n rear camber kits will be installed later down track =)

thanks!

[90LAN]

yes it will fit

i was running 16x8 35

as long as you have good coilovers and dont go silly with height

[boy180]

ahhh thanks 90LAN, im running buddyclub n+ coils, got em here, just lazy to put them on lol..
hope all goes well!

Any pics of the wheels on the ek??? curious if 15x9 will fit at the front if 15x8 isnt a issue.

Depends on the offset I guess

The fronts of Boy180's stick out about 5-6mm
rears sit in about 5-6mm

i have 16x8 +20 and it fits alright. had to roll guards a fair bit but- mines an EM1

[boy180]

nice man nice! i didnt have to roll my front guards, everything was fine, just the rears were jabbing like crazy lol.. squealing like no tomorrow hwen turning, rolled rears n coils would do the job
other than that VAT05, is it just me or are u missing a cover for ur foglights? man those matt black covers look awesome! +1 on the looks too!

[VAT05]

yes, missing the left cover. someone stole it i think. pisses me off every day looking at it. cant find the same cover to replace it.

16x8 +35 offset
205/14/16 tyres
Slightly less camber than espionage at the moment
Installing Buddy Club front and rear camber kits in the coming weeks and will try to minimse camber at all 4 corners
Guards rolled and coilovers set quite low and only get a tiny bit of scrub on the very rare occasion I hit a sudden dip in the road on the fronts. Nothing major at all though.
