Sure. Any Reccomendations I will write down lol I need some help
Well I know your really stuck on those 18x8.5 but check out ambit wheels no one has them on civics I think 3 people and that’s including myself they have awesome deals and crazy good looking wheels! I think a set of bronze wheels from them would look amazing on a black car! The wheels are made for Subaru’s but all you have to do is go on eBay and buy hubcentric rings that cost 20 buck max to convert the bore from 73.1 to 64.1! I’ll give you a number to sales rep his name is Ray if you decide to text him tell him Brandon with the polished metal civic sent you or Danny with the silver one lol ! The number is ‭+1 (626) 537-9861‬

I am just so worried about rubbing issues, I drive about 12,000 miles a year and I do not want to rub knowing I daily the car and drive the hell out of it. Especially because I live in NY which is horrible roads with speed bumps and potholes. I am going to do a little more research on the 18x9.5s With Sportlines and check for rubbing issues. Because I checked out the site and there is a set of wheels I really like.
You’ll be fine I promise lol but yeah go ahead and do the research it’s always a good thing to do anyways!

^This! My setup is 18x9.5, 35mm, 235/40-18's, Eibach Sportlines.
Lots of negative camber in the rear, only about 1.2-1.4° in the front though, no rubbing issues at all.

Does anyone know the hub bore size of the Gram Light 57DR 18x8.5 +38 are?
Almost all after market wheels are 73.1, some are a bit smaller though, and some just a wee bit larger. Get 73.1-64.1 for your Civic, and you should be good to go.

Ok so Gramlights here I come $1600 rims here I come lol
Those are really nice wheels! They are available in 18x9.5", 38mm also. You'd be happier with that more aggressive look. Trust me, I know wheels (I used to have a TT Supra). :headbang:

So, new member here on the site. Just recently upgraded my ‘07 SI coupe for my new ‘18 coupe. Never did anything to my ‘07 (even though I had plans right from the get go when I got it), so the new one is getting the treatment right out the gate. Wheels and tires was one of the first changes...

That's an aggressive offset on your setup. Is the rim poking out of your wheel well? I'm looking into getting a similar setup on my car.

Anything beyond a +40 offset usually pokes out of the wheel wells on these cars 40 is basically perfectly flush. 38 is basically flush as well, 35 slightly very very slightly starts to poke.
I'm running 20mm spacers on the 18x8 +50 OEM rims right now. The rim sits really flush with the fenders.

Just barely.. And I mean barely. I don’t really care for the “poke” look, so I wouldn’t do it if it did. I like how it turned out, has a pretty aggressive look to it.

Love the set up! I’m going with something very similar and was wondering if you used a camber kit for the rear?
