Wedsport SA-15R 18x7.5 +45

By the title assuming you may already know what this is about. basically shopping for rims and i want these Wedsports with the blue chrome for my Agean Blue for my 2016 Civic Ex-T.

Now all im wondering is if they will fit. i tested some ESR's that were 18x9.5 x114.3 +43 and they looked pretty good. so assuming that since these have less offset and less width that they would fit?

thank you to those who help me out

Here is the esr's and how they looked (friends rims not mine lol)

The rims I want to put on

I would hope so since our stock wheels are 18x8 +45. Then again that offset on a wheel that wide may be sticking out. Do you have a wheel place you trust near you so you can get a test fit or ask them if it would fit properly?

the stocks on the 2016 civic ex-t coupes are 17x7 +50 so thats why i was wondering. but as far as a wheel place around me that i trust not really lol. these tire shops are sketchy.

also the ESR's that were 18x9.5 +43 didnt really stick out i think its +40 and more that starts sticking out.

Ah, anyway the stock size on the Sport is 18x8 +45 so should fit ok.

Any particular reason you're thinking of going with that 18x7.5" - I have a set of 18x9.5" 38mm in stock in that BLC finish that would be a much better fit.

X 8 - x9.5s offsets are 18, 38, and 48. I want to go lower offset but not peak out of the wheel well. I've already tried putting 45 offset on my car and it looks pretty good. So that's the whole reason is weds only makes 7.5 with the +45 offset

Comparing the 18x9.5" 38mm to the 18x7.5" 45mm, you'd be coming in 35mm which is... a lot, in my opinion. Obviously you shouldn't have any issue but it would be a set up closer to stock fitment.

For comparison sake, below is a set of 18x9.5" 35mm wrapped in 235/40/18's which - you'd come in another 3mm from that set up if you went with that 38mm set.

Hatchback wheels are x8 +50 or x7 +45. You have to look at width and offset together.

The wheels you posted would sit 1 or 2 mm further inside than Si or Sport wheels. That doesn't sound like what you want when you say you "want to go lower offset."

I have the the civic coupe ex-T not a hatch or a sedan or si

Here's another way to look at it:
x7.5 +45 is an inch more inside the car than the x9.5 +45 you test fit. (It's also an inch more room around your suspension, but there's no need to worry about that.) The offset moves the middle of the wheel.

Gotcha that's all I needed to know thank you

They'll fit no problem.

Is fitment that much different on coupe's then on sedan's or hatchback's?(genuinely curious as I'm not too sure) If fitment is similar, they have a 18x8.5 +35 that would be what I would go with. That may poke a little, but shouldn't too bad. There is also a 18x7.5 +35
