dropping a soldelsol210 03-22-2003, 05:18 AM Hi i have a 1994 honda del sols anyway i took off the stock 13" tires and put on twisted tuner 17x8 when i did it it liftyed the car slitley off the ground. i have lowering springs tenzo type R its a 2.25" drop there is only about 3" between the fender and the tire now is it possible to put the springs on or am i gonna run into truble with it rubbing or hitting the tiresonly grind very very slightly when i cut it all the way to make a 3 point turn maybe sombody has some advice thanks for the help CivicSiRacer 03-22-2003, 10:06 AM So you haven't put the springs on yet? You prolly will be running into problems since you have the wrong size wheels. A Del Sol is based off the Civic platform so the wheel wells are the same. You should have gotten a 17x7" wheel with a 42-44mm offset and 205/40x17" tires if you want to put those springs on. I would say if you want to put those springs on I would get a differnet wheel and tire package. tynebeach 03-29-2003, 02:21 PM Hey CivicSiRaer you seem to know about wheel/tire sizing so I'll ask you what is the offset and when you write 205/40x17 what does the 205 and the 40 mean? Thanks for the help. 94civic 03-29-2003, 03:41 PM 205 is the width of the tire and 40 is the height of the sidewall. tynebeach 03-30-2003, 08:49 PM are those incriments in mm? 94delsolSI 04-04-2003, 03:06 PM 205 is width in mm, the 40 for the profile is the sidewall to tread percentage which means 40 percent of the tire is sidewall and the other 60 is tread knorsk 04-05-2003, 08:09 PM actually if it was me in that situation, i would sell off those wheels and get a set of 16x7's. Or even maybe 15's. That's just me though. I'm obsessed with weight. vBulletin®, Copyright ©2009, Jelsoft Enterprises Ltd.
