Uhhh a 205 can fit nicely on 6.5-7
8 inch wide your looking at 215 225

If your putting 205 over 8 you will be stretching it

this is a one man job if ya use your logic a little. This is when you are tightening the studs so that are seated into the hub. Installed my wheel spacers and they look awesome

^^^ Bro be carerful with that pry bar, that can actually damage the studs if you use to much force. i would protect them with lug nuts. at least.

the cars dirty right now and so are the rims. I'm going to wax it next Saturday maybe, and if not I'll just take some pictures since its supposed to rain this Saturday. The wheels don't look like wow but they look good. It's probably better if you check em out in person one of these weekends

That chart makes no sense to me. What's backspace?

im getting these Click. and they do offset by backspace i gues and the chart is like a conversion sheet i think. im getting 15x8 and its only a 1-5 inch backspace and im pretty confused

I'm thinking of the backspace as a spacer and if it is like a spacer, it doesn't make sense, the larger a spacer, the more negative the offset, this seems to be the opposite.

I'm guessing you'll be using those wheels for track/quarter mile use?? And please give us more pics of your SSR Type C setup in the official post a pic of your 6gc thread!!

Oh those diamond racing rims are awesome. Ive seen some on hondas and they look great. Definately get them. And better off giving them a call and ask them about the backspace and how they measure it.

35 mm spacer.

problem with the 7th gens is they are only 6.5" wide, thats narrower than stock lol

So Ted did figure out what backspace was?

35mm huh, ya im not going to put a 35mm spacer on my car lol, thats more then an inch right?

im in the process of a 3rd gen swap, i feel like with the power the 3rd gen will put down i will end up breakin something lol

and no i dont kno what back spacing is. i didnt look into it to b honest but if i had to make and educated guess i would say the space between the inner part of the tire/rim and the strut? lol idk man dk much about offsets thats y i asked my own question.

30-35 mm spacer for front.
40-45 mm spacer for rear.

don't do it.
if you're going to go flush(ish) don't do it with wheels that are narrower than stock.

You'll need 21mm spacers for front and 38mm for rear. Remember, that's for hellaflush. If you want just a nice, functional flush, I'd say 15mm front and 30mm rear would do nicely.
