Wheel size for DC5S?

[mugsee]

Thanks again.

So say I bought some wheels and tyres in exactly the same size and offset as the car above. It would fit exactly the same? I'm not saying im going to do this but just curious.

They will fit the same, provided you have the same accompanying modifications - coilovers, spring rates, camber arms, rolled fenders, etc.

Chi - I know someone who cleared brembos with +46 work cr 17" rim. I take it that the clearing needed for the spoon and jdm brembos are very similar?

In terms of rims and brakes clearance it not only depends on rim offset and width but also the spoke design of the actual rim.

JDM rims are +60 and they clear stock JDM DC5R brembos, so something with a +46 should have a more clearance, assuming the rim design permits. Spoon calipers are much chunkier to the JDM OEMS and require higher offset rims when trying to clear them. However like you pointed out, rim design is equally a determining factor when deciding what will clear and what will not.

Something cool to note is that 16x7 +35 Spoon SW338's will clear Spoon S2000 calipers. Tres cool.

Personally I wouldn't go any thing higher then +35 for DC5...

According to Kong Fu, this is not the best offset and you should keep your +43's...
