I had 1 in. on the back with 245X40X18 Proxies- looked great with no rubbing.

But i didn't like the gap- so i replaced them with 245 45 18 Yoko AVS ES 100s, the scrubbed on the outside whenever i hit even a small bump- took the spacers off- now i have no problems, except the damn back tires look tucked.

So heads up.

But- with the proxies, it scraped on alot of things, now... not so much. I couldn't beleive that the small diff actually made that much of a diff in ride height, but it did.

You have 20X7? What the hell? 20 is entirely too big, and 7in wide is smaller than my buddy's stock RSX- were the wheels for a civic or something? you gotta pay to play dude.


Definitely sacrafice a few inches in tallness for width.

ya 20x7.5 i think is perfect for my car, as you can see from my sig there not tucked away and width i think is pretty decent, im not looking to go extra wide or ride lower, i aint dragging or burning out its my everyday car occasionally i race it at the track but not with these wheels and tires so relax im about look and not about redline..!!
