Just to confirm again, i just bought a set of DC5R rims and put them on my DC2R. They went on with no modifications. The front brake caliper is very very close to the rim spokes mind you, but they do not foul. I am currently fixing some gutter rash and spraying them gloss black, putting some enkie stickers on the spokes and getting new 205/50/16 tyres fitted so ill post some pics when they are all done. :)
nice keep us posted!

i did something similar, got 205/50/16 but powder coated the wheels instead of spraying them.....
I would suggest that you get 215/45/16 tyres instead. I feel that the 50 series raises that car a little too high, and I think that 45's may help it have a better stance...... Ive put a picture to give you an idea of what yours will look like... hope it helps........

Thanks mate. I did a tyre profile calculator and with the 50 profile it puts the overall specs within 2% of the original size. Ive unfortunately already ordered the tyres lol. But ill put the piccys up when they are done. I got the last coats of paint on last night and it looks like a nice gloss black. Ill get the stickers done today and well see how she goes lol. Wish me luck! Thanks for the pic.
The old and the new! Getting tyres fitted rite now.
cool.... the 50's seem appropriate for some people, whereas others might rather the 45's..... up to you at the end......
what are you going to do with your centre caps?? spray and stickers????
Yeah ill see how the 50's go for the time being. I sprayed over the center caps as they were grey with the honda logo on them.
I got some enkie stickers made yesterday (only small) so im putting the enkie logo on the center caps and the enkie text with the logo on one of the spokes.
They didnt fit the tyres yesteerday because they were very busy but today is the day so hopefully ill have some finalised pics of it on the weekend.
:)
Nice colour. Good luck ;)Quote:

Thanks for the feedback. Lower profile tyres and ride height will set these off. Good luck :thumbsup:Quote:
