Hi, i want to get a new wheels but i dont know if its posible to have an 35 offset without rubbing. Im looking for a 16" x 7 " 35 offset.

Could someone post pics with 35 offset wheels on a civic ek?

Thanks to everyone!!

Sorry, my english is very bad. Im from spain.

Ahh maybe 195-45/16 tyres

Si te sirve de algo, yo llevo 205/50/16 offset 40 con caída -1'5º delante y me toca en el paso de rueda.

I'm sorry for my Spanish reply guys.
 
I have some regamasters with 35 offset to go on to my ek9, Ill let you know if it rubs or not. my rear gaurds are rolled, if its not rolled, pretty sure it will rub. thanks

Thanks for your replay Adri, but its not the size that i want. If someone knows something about mines, it would be better!!

Thanks!
 
I recommend you go with 205/45/16" tires, you won't have problems, but the 195/45/16"s also work.
 
you can, youll just need to add some camber. stick with 205 section width, but if you can, 215 would definitely increase grip.
 
i run 35 offset on my ek4 (195/50.15), car is dropped about 15-20mm and no rubbing
 
my old advans wereva 35 and I got lots of rubbing, but my car was lowered right down
 
I was just about to ask the same question and saw this thread.
im also about to buy a set or 16"x7" enkeis with +35 offset for my EK9.
Im dropped. So Dino and Dunsy have given to very different oppnions.
Any one more?
 
SA3R
16x7.5 + 35

tires 205,45,16

it clear's and sits flush you can even run 16x8 if you want my rear has no negative or positive camber but will really work better if the rear is a bit more negative. All in all i have no problem and it give's the wheels concave look. I hope this help you out you guys

HI guys, (Javi, sorry for taking your thread again)
I test fitted the enkeis and im worried about the tires going to rub.
The tires are 205/45 16.

What do you think?

How do you guys do?
 
Bump to this thread..
I need some answers too!!
I've got a set of 16x 7, offset 35. I tried them on my car, and they do rub when cornering, but my car is low ( approx 7mm fender to tire gap)
For those using 35 offset rim -
What shocks/ coilovers set up do you have?
What is the compression rate of the springs on your car?
 
Just to help a little bit.
The wheel specs for all civics apart from EK9 are the following
PCD 4x100
OFFSET from 35 to 45
Bore 56.1

On the contrary EK9 has
5x114
40 to 50 offset
64.1 bore

And ITR
4x114
35 to 45 offset
64.1 bore
 
I'm running 16x7 Regas and +45 offset. I've tried 205/45 R16 tyres and got loads of rubbing on the front, even with +45 offset. I'm now running 205/40 with no problems. I can't imagine a +35 offset with 205/45 tyres not rubbing. Rear was ok.
Car is quite low...

Hope this helps.
