Wheel fitment

[richie92ex]

I have searched a bit on here and i cant find anyone w/ the same setup I'd like to run. I'm going to have Tokico rak 501 coil overs and would like to know if 17X7.5's w/ a 42mm offset and 215/40 /17's are going to clear everything with the ride height having the tires setting on top of the tires, I guess that would be roughly a 2.5" drop. I bought everything but the wheels yet, any info on a good size wheel tire combo for this would be awesome. Thanks

You may rub on the plastic splash guard lining the inside of the wheel well when you turn sharply, but they will fit otherwise. I have that exact same size. I rubbed when turning with a 1.8" drop.

with a set of se rims and a 2.5" drop with 205/50/15's, i still rub with a when i make sharp turns.....Im sure if i did a 195 it would prevent buy why switch a good set of tires? I can deal with a little rubbing and wide turns lol

with my 95 accord, i have 42mm offset wheels 17x7 with a 2.5 drop and 215-45-17 tires and i have no rubbing whatsoever...

as you may or may not know 90-97 suspension is pretty much the same.

i have never tried 17x7.5 but that sounds like it would clear with the 42 offset you have.

i used to have 17x9 +35 with 215 40 17 on 2" inch drop and never had rubbing issues infront..the rear rubbed the rubber mold inside the fender lip,but i took it off rolled the rear fender a lilttle and no more rubbing after.
