Hi all, and I apologise in advance for the question and when I did a search there was a lot of similar questions, but not a definite answer.
I have a 07 Accord Type S and the standard wheels are really nice but I think I fancy a change. Are these wheels 7" or 7.5" wide, and is the offset 55?
I'm going to lower it on Tein springs which give a 40mm drop at the front and a 30mm drop at the rear. Sticking with 17" wheels how wide and low an offset can I go? Incidentally I have zero interest in stance and running loads of camber, not going to start mud slinging, just not my thing.
I've been on an offset calculator looking at 17x8.5 et35 wheels which says they will poke out 33mm or 39mm more than my current wheels (depending on my wheels being 7" or 7.5" wide) and with a quick look at a measuring tape I don't have that sort of space. But yet, I've seen one car on here with 9.5" rear wheels, so if someone could offer some advice that'd be great.
Thanks,
Mark.
