Hey,
I currently have 18 x 7.5" wheels on my car and would like to upgrade.
My questions is will 19 x 8" fit on a Civic Ek Sedan?
Please let me know if you have them on your Ek and if they scrub or if you have any issues with them.
Thanks,
Tom

i honestly dont think 8" will. i got 18x7.5" and the biggest i can put on is 215/35/18 without scrubbing (car is lowered), 225 will rub for sure, and my guards have been rolled!
u gotta realise 7.5" width onwords is used on full sized V6/V8 family cars etc.
205 is the max i can fit on my 17s and im lowered aswell. 215 scrub like anything. ive seen big wheels on civics... im sure u can make it fiT!
There was a guy with 20's on his ek civic said it only scrubed on tight corners. I'd find a set of 2nd hand 19's and try them on for size and scrubing easyest way to find out.
anything can fit it,just the harder it is the more $$$ you will be spending.
you will require some pretty intense guard rolling and even then 215 is getting pretty close to constant scrubbing

my old rims on my mates ek sedan, standard shocks, superlow kings,
19 x 7.5, 215 35 r19
only scrubs on full locks, lipped guards all round
you can squeeze 215 easy, i had problems doing 225 (which im actually cut, i wanted phat tyres), apparently they'd rub on tight corners only because my guards have been rolledQuote:

man that its comepletely useless.... how is a Vx clubsport got anything to with a Ek civic?
I think hes just trying to prove a point that anything can fit... Aslong as you have the money to spend to change stuff...
What jonald said. My point was when u have the money to spend u can do pretty much anything
Thanks for your help guys, I think i will just stick to my 18's and just lower it so it looks nice!!!
Ive got a 97 EK hatch with 19" x 8" dolces
they fit... but it scrubs. looks hot though =)
I must say that Clubby looks damn sexy with the 22's
