        205/45 will be a little easier in clearing your upper control arms on the rears on your 16x8 wheels especially with a +35. a wheel those size your gonna have roll your fenders regardless if unless you plan on raising the car. you get better clearance if you cut your fenders instead of rolling them. (becareful its very risky to mess up your paint)

          thanx Jed and also what do you use to cut your fender if you dont mind me asking,and does +35 offset have more or less clearence then a +25 offset?

            my fenders arnt cut they're rolled. it clears since i have a 16x7 +27 wheel with a 10mm spacer. so basically im running a +17 and it barely clears. timmy and joey has their fenders cut since theyre rolling on (tim)16x8 and (joey)17x8. i think tim used a dremel and joey used those lil metal hand saws.

            our cars usually run around the +42 to +45 wheels. +35 has more fender clearance then a +25. the lower the offset the more your wheels pop out. the higher the offset the closer your wheels are to the car.

                      my passenger headlight keeps going out. I remember after i washed my engine bay, that night it didnt work. But later that night it did. I tested the adapter harness on my driver side and the bulb, they both work, so it's my car's wiring end thats fudging up.

                      It would work and not work, I'm going to take off my bumper and see if there is any loose or exposed wire, but other than that what can i do to source the problemo?

                      I checked the fuses, they're fine.

                          Maybe the bulb is going out.

                                Brake Master Cylinder? For Accord. Unless you modded the brakes somehow.

                                Sold, but not forgotten.
