15x8 ET20 on Civic EK

**baethos** · 24-01-2013 10:08 AM

Hi All,

Did a quick search, but couldn't find anything about this...anyway, does anyone have 15x8 ET20 wheels on their EK? I'm pretty sure a few people have done it, but just wanting to know what fitment is like. Or if anyone here has something similar?

Will probably run 195/50/15 tyres. I know each wheel and tyre brand varies despite its stated size, but I'm just wondering what to expect. Any pics would be great. I know I'll probably need to roll my fenders depending how low I plan to go. Will I need to run more neg camber too?

Thanks!

Not hard to fit on an ek. Just roll your guards and should sit fine.

Edit: heres a pic of my car running 16x8 +30

youll be fine, probably just roll guards and run a bit of camber.

u should be fine i have seen people with ek civics with
standard shocks and super low kingsprings with no camber arms
with rolled guards and they were fine

i have also seen a ek with 16x9s on it with sooooo much stretch looked good but
bit of a rough ride if you ask me

Thanks for the pic. What tyre sizes are you running?

Will a 205/50 be too big?

I bought this car to be a daily, so it still needs to be daily'able lol.
I have another weekend car.

Im running 205/45 and its also my daily. Should be fine. Lower it tho or youll get some weird looking fitment lol

^ Thanks! Are you on lowered springs or coilovers?

**jajaja** · 24-01-2013 03:43 PM

16x8 +20, 205/40/16

Guards are rolled, fronts are flared out (pulled out) around 1-2cm

^ Thanks for that, looks good! Is the pull at the front necessary to clear? I assume the clearance on a 15" will be similar to that of a 16"? Do you think a 205/50 will be too big? What are your camber settings? Thanks!
