First of all hello everybody this is my first post so please be gentle. I have just had my arches rolled in order to accommodate wider wheels. The wheels iam after are Rota Torques (drifts) as I want the concaved look. The size iam looking at is 17x9 et 30 on the front and 17x9.5 et 35 on the rear. My question is wil these fit now my arches have been done, or will I need further mods like spacers etc? Additionally will this noticeably effect the handling in a negative way? And what size tyres would u run with these wheels?

I have read all the fitment guides but cant seem to find info on what will fit after having the arches rolled. I apologise if this has already been covered but would greatly appreciate some help and information.

Cheers Jimmy

 

No they will not fit. Spacers would be the last thing you need as that will only make things worse. The front needs to be at +40 at least. I run 17x9 +43 on the front with a 245 and I had to pull the fender some and run -2.5 degrees for them to fit. For the rear the 17x9.5 +35 can fit but you will need to run at least -3 if not -3.5 camber to fit them with a 255. You can stretch a 245 and get a little more room but thats as much stretch as I would recommend. I would look for something in the +40 or higher for the front and if available +40 or higher for the rear as well in those specs.

 

What suspension are you on? I would not even try this at stock height, wheels that aggressive will look silly.

If you are lowered, it can be done but you will have to compromise with stretched tires and quite a bit of negative camber. I'm not recommending it, but you could run a 215/45 front and 245/40 rear.

 

Thanks for the quick replys. Iam going to take your advice and go with the same wheels but in 17x7 and 17x8.5. I did want the concave wheels but its just not worth it by the sounds of it. Iam sure the flat wheels will look ok.

Cheers Jimmy

 

Stretch tires and hella flush = the gayness

 

" hella flush" WTF is that surposed to mean?

 

It means the wheel is flush with the fender. Hella is just a stupid term created by norcals.

 

Right ok thanks for clearing that up. Gay it may be but id rather have wheels that fit right and dont screw up all Hondas good work.
