will 8.5's fit on eps and whats the most you can go on tires?
if i knew i wouldnt ask i just want to know because im going to get new rims and tires and i purchased my car with 17's but i dont know what the offset is and its runnig 205 tires, i was hopping to run 225's and im guessing i would need atleast 17x8 to run 225s
you're gonna need an alignment with some negative camber to run 225's, esp if you're dropped.. why not run 215/45-17's on a 7.5 in wheel?
those are the same specs as the HFP wheels, which i'm putting on my car in about a week. obviously they're not the widest tires but if it's grip you're looking for then just get a good set of tires. the BFGoodrich G-force Sport are a good tire for daily driving that won't break the bank. i'm gonna get the Azenis RT-615 which are a little more expensive. plus you won't have to have crazy negative camber which will help with the wear of the tires..
recomended rim size in everywhere ive looked for a 225 is 7 inches. hope that helps. there is also a fitment thread, if you search, where people have been posting the rim/tire size as well as offset in addition to any notes on rubbing.
thnx but ya if i can run 225 on 7s i will cuz i kinda like the -camber lol i dont think i would need negative up front though
i was also asking myself that question, what i want is that where my car end the rim start, give it a little more agressive look, i was planin to buy 5Zigen GN+ Pro Racer Wheel 17x8.5, but i think 7.5 with 35mm offset and 215/45 would do just fine

i also saw your what wheel color for a vbp ep thread, stick with bronze man. i wnet bronze ( paint my stockies lol ) and im not planin to go back, my ep looks like a sti lol.
17x8 +35 and roll the rear fenders.
check out chrispychicken's ep.
well mines are gold but a lot of people tell me to not waste money on rims since i have some already its just mines are this bs brand called bsa i and i never even heard of them so i put honda center caps and i dont even know the offset or anything and i need new tires, so im hoping when i get 225's they will fit on this rims because anything under 215 looks to skinny from the back and i dont like that
215/45 would look semi-stretched on a 7.5 wide 17" rim.
It will fit, but it really depends on offset, tire width and sidewall, and car height. There are a lot of factors to consider. Remember, this is just a civic . . .
