^ mm i dont think so, with 1.25inches lowered. with no roll? nah
I sort of cheated.. (:
Had custom rear 1/4's finished, Ap2v1's with 15mm spacer, I will be buying a 20mm spacer, i am running a perfect alignment remember, if I want a large amount of camber I can fit "2 spacers and make these fit, I already have done it, but no need, because I like functional.

215 w/ 25mm damaged fenders
225 w/ 20mm damaged fenders as well
The damage basically pulls the lip of the fender outward and up. No other deformations happened.

man i can't make up my mind now...
20f 25r ,
20 all around,
15f 20r
also does anybody have a picture of the fender and bumper tab mods that needs to be done? just to see what kind of work needs to be done
thanks
I think, in conclusion, either 15f-20r Or 20mm all around is pretty "flush", 25mm sticks out already with stock alignment , I'm i right?
Based on the pics I've seen here, haven't seen any of this car in person.

This thread is pointless...... Why waste money on extended studs, & spacers for oem wheels. Also waisting the time to roll fenders, f**k up fenders and risking the quarter panels to buckle..It's not oem, it's not jdm, it looks good but why do it???? Just buy a good set of wheels and make the car look better instead of wasting effort on oem wheels...... It's not a civic or integra people....
They should rename this thread "poormans s2000"

Different strokes man....
some people actually love the look of the stock wheels but just want a little more aggressive look. Nothing wrong with that.
I was planning on doing this myself but in the end wanted to have aftermarket wheels so I just went ahead and got wheels instead of spending money on spacers. Doesnt mean other people just dont prefer to keep OEM wheels.
edit: And just because you want to keep stock rims but want a more agressive look doesnt mean its the "poor mans" S2000....give me a damn break...

and most of these are just bolt on spacers, no need to press in new extended studs. its really not that big of a hassle

Most of the aftermarket wheels I've seen are too flashy. Why do it? You stated it yourself, "it looks good". I did it for brake clearance initially, but liked the subtle stock look with a hint of aggressive stance without screaming, "CHECK OUT MY WHEELS!"
i Love my ap2v1 wheels and 25mm spacers all around..
