Hey you guys I just got some rims from my friends and I was looking on here about which spacers I would need and what offset I will need. I'm still new to this and I am hoping that this thread will help out everybody else that is new to it as well. Well back to my problem I have a 2013 civic si sedan and the rims I got were stock enkei off a 2011 evo x. If anyone can help me out ill post the the hub centric and the size of the rims when I get home tonight thx everyone that help out

The distance from 0 offset to your strut is about 3.25inches. You can run closest x9" wide with 38 or less offset. anything more will hit the strut. So just do the math. If the evo rims are 18x8.5" +38. Youll be fine without spacers

Been a while since I updated. Its been the same set up and nothing really has changed. I did sell my old battles and got new wheels today to try out how aggressive of a wheels I can fit. Ended up picking up 2 mb battles in 17x9.5 +15 (with a 3mm spacer) and 2 enkei rpf1 in 17x10 +18 and put them up. the result? Perfect :)

If you are running stock Evo rims you need to get the correct lug nuts also. Ever look at the stock EVO OEM lug nuts? They are very unusual and most aftermarket lugs will not work on the stock rims.


The center bore is not the right size for a Honda. You will need to run hub centric rings to get them seated properly. Evo center bore on the rim is 67.1 and your civic has 64.1

Just find a hubcentric ring that sizes 64.1 - 67.1 and you should be fine. Also you should get a set of the stock Mitsubishi factory lug nuts.

The thread pitch for the Mitsu is the same and Honda - 12x1.5

But most factory wheels have a different seat on the lug nut and you should run the correct lug and not aftermarket tuner lugs.

No idea of what you consider slammed or how much you care about your tires lasting. I'd go look in the lowered coupe/sedan threads and see what you like from pics. Then look at their wheel/suspension setup.

Well, to me it's like as low as I can go. And my tires, I wouldn't care much because I don't plan on using them everyday. Just for shows.

You lost me at wanting your wheels flushed with the fenders and then saying you want to tuck tires. However, from what you're saying, I'm assuming you're going to stretch tires?

Yeah. Tuck my tires, not my wheels. My tires can be tucked and be flushed at the same time. Like super close to the fender, like a quarter of an inch away from the fender. Get it? Yes I am stretching tires
