Your wheel sizes for FD Civic

i got some "short work" ones from one of the traders in black.
these are pretty good i reckon.. you get 4 wheel nuts and 1 lock nut as you want..

but reason i like these is because,
standard honda wrench shape wont screw or undo the 4 wheel nuts, i had to dig into my torque wrench kit to get a correct fitting one.. probably because, the holes which the nuts fit into on the wheel, are too small for both the nut and wrench to fit so i needed a smaller diameter piece to screw it in.

dunno if that makes sense.. hope it helps tho.

But since it's black I thought I'd let you know... and they are extended and hollow.. so look nice imo:

Sweet. Ill look into the Works lugs. Im worried that it may not fit if i get short ones. I need 12X1.5s to fit my Civic FD with offset +42

Mark: cheers

hey does anyone know what the centre bore of our rims/wheel/disc thing are? 64.1mm?

just checked out an FD that parks up at my place, thought I would seeing i was taking recycling and wanted to see what he's done.

running 20" rims, 225/30 profile tyres. sits just up under the guards, so perhaps flared. seen the car around for a year or so, so he isn't having many problems with the rims like others have mentioned.

be interesting to find out what else this guy has done, has a big exhaust, all chrome edging everwhere. looks quite nice.

just want to share,

my wheel wrecked the whole plastic guard inside and dented the front guard after few months lol

front right
