Im getting a 16x7 inch rim, i was just wondering what offset i should get and what size tire i should get so it doesnt mess with my speedometer to much. I have a 00 civic. Thanks

 

205/45/15 creates less than a 1% difference in the speedo, so that is probably the right size to use.

 

but its a 16 inch rim and not a 15 inch.

 

Whoops, sorry, the hot weather is getting to my head.

I meant to say 205/45/16

 

with a +45 offset?

 

Hmm I'm clueless when it comes to offset..I'm sure somebody on here will know.

 

k, thanks for all your help though

 

+45 would be good... i got +40 and it rubs a tiny bit in the rear (on 205/45-16)

 

are you lowered any or riding on stock height?

 

I have a set of 16x7 wheels with a +37mm offset mated with a set of 205/40/16 tires, lowered around 2.5" and I don't experience any rubbing whatsoever. But this is also probably due to the fact that the overall diameter of my tires are smaller. I am planning on switching to 45 series tires in the future.

But in terms of offset, I think that that between 40-42mm would be ideal (this is what I heard for the 6th gens).
