    4.5" (on 9" rim) or 4" (on 8" rim) is ideal, 0 offset :cool:

    Just gather opinions on larger wheel spacers, many say it oks many say no. Its fine about the offset for me i have positive offset and 7" width wheels so no worries on extra offset. It would just make it 0 offset or close.

    Okay, the wheel dimensions were meant for 2nd Gens. Pretty sure 1st gen stock is 4.5" :notsure:

    What does TC website say about wheels for their kit?!

    Told me the same thing , 0 offset. Im actually got it solved by shaving the caliper, and running 1/4 spacer. But Then agian i can run a 1" spacer and ive got an extra set of calipers ungrinded.

    ...too much shit to list.
    Correct, 4.5" stock.

    4" BS on the first gen seems to be the magic number. Doesn't mean you can't get it to work with others. I run 16x8 with 4" BS and at full bump I still rub my 285's a bit if the wheels are turned one way or another. But that only seems to happen when hucking it.

    I helped a neighbor install some seats into his RSX. Took all day - had to fabricate custom seat brackets, seat belt mounts, etc.
