I ran these (well, 16x8's) on my ep3 for a while. To get them to work is gonna be a lot more effort than you think, I spent plenty of time trying to get mine to fit.

Just because other people have, does not mean you will.

LOL yeah those look hideious, I promise you man it will look NOTHING like that.

Those people are idiots and just through them on there car to be cool. They have no camber, not lowered at all, no rolling went into this.

what you just showed is the worst example of these wheels on a civic.

I know what it takes to get these done, and I will do it the right way the first time and if its not up to my standards, I will sell them and go with a different wheel setup.

Heres VERY few good pics of these wheels on a car that was done right and what im looking to go for on these wheels. The pics you showed is why people HATE these wheels and why everyone thinks its SO hard to get them to fit properly.

Even this guy needs more camber & more lower, but looks good nonetheless

This teggy has it perfect!

This ek has it perfect too. Not the same wheels, but same specs

Those are 3 good prime examples of how they should look.

Keep us posted with your results.

If you make it look like the ones above, it might not be too bad. Tread life and tire wear who cares.
