Official Wheel Fitment Thread for 11th Gen FL5 Civic Type R

[RCX]

Inner clearance will be limited to around 9.5 ~50-55, before it is far too close to the inside. 11" likely would not work.

Do you mean there is 5-10mm of clearance inside? 50-55 offset pushes wheel out 5-10mm.

On my FK8 I ran 255/40R18 on 9.5x18 +50 Weds.

" Compared to your existing wheel, this new wheel will have an inner rim which is 3.6mm further away from the suspension strut. The outer rim will poke out 16.4mm more than before. "

Thinking of buying 10 or 10.5x19 for DE5.

" Compared to your existing wheel, this new wheel will have an inner rim which is 3.7mm closer to the suspension strut. The outer rim will poke out 21.7mm more than before. "


Dont think 10x19 +50-55 would have any issues at all.

On a stock height would I rub if I get a 265/40/18 on a +45 offset wheels with 3 passengers?

It would not rub

Hi, I'm looking at ENKEI T6R 18x9.5 +45 and Blizzak LM005 255/40R18. Wondering if you see any fitment issues like rubbing? Tirerack says it's an aggressive fitment and might require fender mods. Thanks in advance.

You'll be fine with those wheels and tires. A bunch of guys are running more aggressive setups than that with no issue.

I see that TE37 Saga S-Plus are now available in 19x9.5, and +55 is an option. What are the pros and cons of going with et55 instead of more aggressive et45 besides looks?

Considering the more conservative offset to stay closer to stock geometry. Will the +55 have a significant advantage in terms of suspension wear and tear over time? Which offset will look less “awkward” if I decide to stay with stock ride height (but might go Spoon springs eventually)?

You will get less torque-steer at a +55 compared to a +45; but aside from that it is just visual. Both will look good; a +45 would look less awkward in our opinion. There will not be considerable wear-and-tear on suspension and tire regardless of the offset you choose.

I’ve been eyeing the 57DR on your site but I feel that I would regret the offset. Is there a reason why they went with +38 instead of something over +40? I want to wrap it with 275/35r18 and lower it with Swift or Spoon springs.

Should I risk it with that wheel or save up more money to get CE28 or TE37 with a +4X offset?

Hey Thomson!
What all do you guys have available in 19” right now?

Sometimes a few options for Gram Lights aren’t on the site.

I was just about to ask the exact same question as I’m looking at the same wheel, spec of +38, and tire spec you are planning to. LOL

Plenty of options; Gramlights 57DR/57CR/TE37 Ultra/BBS - a few more as well. Send me a Pm and we can talk!
