any higher than 40 will rub on the springs..

Non SE's are about a 12mm offset. I guess up to 40 works.
These are 25mm offset on my SE:

Man...F you guys with your SSRs and old school Enkeis...
Web777, which model is that? I've seen them before on *cough* Hondas *cough* but I've always thought they looked too nice to go on a Civic (which are still cool...just not if they have nicer wheels than me..)


....or something...

Zac

Woops, another question. Web777, what suspension combo you using? Your car sits real nice and low. I'm on RB springs w/ Tokico Blues and I think my car is still a little too high. I was thinking maybe of going with GC coilovers up front and ISC adj. rear perches (like rx7gslse), but it'd be interesting to hear what the cali folks are usin.

TIA,

Zac

The rims are Enkei Formula One's from Japan. The Honda ones look similar but they are Mugen and are quite expensive.

Suspension:
Front: RB lowering kit with coilovers
Rear: Eibachs with 1 coil cut.

Beautiful cars boys. Thanks web777. Seen any sets for sale lately? Where'd you get yours?

Which photo gallery (from what I assume is SevenStock) are those pics from?

Thanks!

Zac
