Anyone else have really weird luck with the fitment industries tracking system? Mines gone from incoming parts, to assembling, to to shipped back to assembling, back to incoming, shipped, and back like 4 times now over the last 3 weeks. I emailed them but they just said check the tracker ?

Personally, their tracking worked great for my order ...

Never got a tracking number but they did arrive today. 2 had center caps and 2 didn't...

I'm going to add this bit of info as well, because I'm a total nerd ... the Michelin PS4AS (235/40R18) are quieter than my OEM Goodyear Eagle Sport All Season (235/40R18).

*both measurements were done on the same stretch of road (downhill, 6th gear, cruise control set ... effectively coasting, to eliminate as much engine noise as possible), at the same time of day, on my way home from work.

Anyone want to add which Conical Lugs they went with? I'm looking at the options and since prices range from $20 to $120+ I don't see a clear winner.

Info that seems pertinent for anyone browsing here:
OEM Wheel Lug Nut = Ball Seat (Will not work with most aftermarket wheels)
Aftermarket Wheels require Conical/Acorn Seat Lug Nuts
Standard Civics 12 x 1.5 thread pitch, CTR 14 x 1.5 threading

I used Monster Extended Lugs, they were cheap and effective. I do plan on going with Kics at some point though, just because theyre locking.

I just bought these. Too good of a price to pass up. Locks aren't a concern I have.

RUB WHEN CHARGING OR RUNNING QUICKLY?

RUB WHEN CHARGING OR RUNNING QUICKLY?

Zero rub. In fact, the rear is the close shot and I'm thinking I could have gone with 19s in the rear with no issue.

Interesting side note: my tire pressure light hasn't come on after switching from the 16s to the 18s. I wonder if the new setup is the same diameter as the old.

Hey guys few questions. I have a 2016 Honda Civic sedan EXT.

I recently purchased tires for my stock civic rims. Michelin pilot sport AS4 (215/50 R 17)

I was looking at getting wheels for my setup. I’m looking for a flush/hella flush fit but had difficulties in finding my exact setup in the fitment industries gallery. I’m still new to all of this and wanted some help.

The wheels I was looking at were the avid av6. 17x8 size with 35mm offset. Will this setup fit flush with my tires? Is that offset the closest possible flush I can get? I also want to lower my car on eibach pro kit in the next few months. Would that change my offset?

What would look better 17 x 8 or 17 x 9 ?

Also would my tire size be able to fit on a 18 inch rim?

I noticed the most popular setups I see are the 18 x 8.5 35mm offset

Thanks guys.
