hii im looking at getting some 16x8's +38 offset for the fronts...just wondering if they would fit without rolling/pumping guards

It would fit with guards rolled.

It just depends on how much camber etc you want to run?

camber doesnt worry me...ive got coilover sleeves so i can adjust height so i can get natural camber...but dont wanna go to low...kinda going for rwc but its just a thought for now. and i can roll the guards myself if nessessary

Ok i've fitted 16x8 +33 + another 25mm hubcentric spacer so that's like 16x8 +8 on the front of my dc2r

And the rears had 16x7 +33 + another 25mm hubcentric spacer.

So pretty much front was
16x8 +8
and rears
16x7 +8

215/45/16 tyres.

Can send you some pics for reference if you would like

it should fit no problem

i got 17x8 +33(i think) on the frnt on my dc4, my guards are rolled but i got about an inch of room between the guard and the tyre, only thing i get is the tyre/wheel rub on the inside on the wheel wells (metal bit) when turning sharply

able to test fit one first before buying to see if it clears everything?

wouldnt have a clue if it would clear the suspension components?

no idea mate. but i think ill just stay with my 16x7's and my next honda will get 16x8's depends on what i get.
i got failed for rwc cos my rear tyres were not the correct load rating (487)...has to be not less than 530kg's per tyre....my car only weights 1100 and never has more than 2 people in it.
