What setup of these currently available staggered CE28N+ wheels would you guys go with if you were me, assuming you had a fender roll (no pull) and wanted a slightly aggressive look. Flush, maybe slight poke. Car is lowered 3/4 of an inch. I don't want to rub. Which would look the best in your eyes? Are they all doable? Will any clear a BBK?

1. Front 17x7.5 +48 Rear 17x9 +61 (safest, maybe too safe?)
2. Front 17x7.5 +44 Rear 17x9 +45
3. Front 17x8 +38 Rear 17x9 +45
4. Square 17x9 +45 (would rather stay staggered, but it's an option)

 

number 3 or 4 will suit your needs the best

why do you want to keep a staggered fitment specifically?

 

I like the way the car currently behaves and wanted to improve upon that but not upset the current balance.
Currently running a 17x7.5 and 17x9 setup with a pretty tame OEMish offset, no fender roll. Wanted to go more aggressive and about to buy Ce28n.

 

Set up 1 would likely be very similar to what you have as they're no fender modification required specs.
Set up 2 will be flush in the rear but won't really fill out the front
Like it was mentioned, 3 or 4 would suit your needs but depending on what tire size and how much negative camber you're running you may need a slight pull as well. Don't forget that for the rears you'll have to relocate your bumper tab too

 

Thanks, leaning towards 3.
Was considering 225/255 tires but 215/245 is always an option as well.

Trying not to pull the fenders, but tabs will definitely be relocated during roll.

 

Width depends really on the tire you're picking. I went 225/255 with the Continental ExtremeContact Sport tires and I can't stand how heavy and slow it made turn in feel. Just my $.02 worth.

 

I tend to drive in colder weather in spring/fall and even in winter assuming no snow/ice/salt etc. So was considering Bridgestone Potenza Sport AS or Continental ExtremeContact DWS 06 Plus. (both ultra high performance all seasons). Leaning towards the contis.
Would your recco be to stick with 215/245 on 17x8/17x9 vs going with 225/255 ?

No track driving just some spirited highway driving.

 

I'd stick with 215/245. Check and see if the Michelin Pilot A/S are available. I have run the Conti Extreme A/S on a few cars (not the Honda) and had good results year round.

 

Yes, the Michelin Pilot Sport All Season 4 are available. 215/245 for them as well if I went that route?
Do you think I'd have better performance and less noise from them? Hearing good things about the Conti A/S from other members here so that's where I was leaning. And heard the Michelins were a bit 'squirmy' but that was a single person's opinion.

 

The Michelin is a good tire, I'm running them on my Giulia Quadrifoglio currently, only have a few hundred miles on them right now, but happy so far. Think it would be a toss up between the two really but the Michelin's probably cost more so there's that to consider. I'd give the Conti's a try.

I ran A/S on the Honda once, they were Yokohama's and awful, so I've steered clear from doing it again.
