I finally got my fender rubbing problem resolved by changing from racing harts (they refunded my money ) and got some fikse's. I don't know what offsets are being used, but I have 18x8.5 and 18x9 and I haven't had any rubbing under any conditions so far with 225/40s and 255/35s

Wow, 225's on an 8.5" wheel, not a lot of rubber. I didn't think we could do 8.5's up front.

I don't think rock has 8.5's up front but they'd fit if you wanted. Ben (bulletproof) has 18x8.5 running 235/35-18's.

rock? 8.5's????????? Are you sure?

if you supercharge the S2K engine

do you still have the VTEC??? or do you have to disable it?

The HP added is strangely equivalant to the number of times I can say "oh, sh*t!" from 6,000 to 9,000 RMPs. Anyone else notice this?
