Help I Need Wheel Spacers!!

I Have a 99 civic coupe and just aquired a set of 19" rims all good. :smile: they look awesome! but I can only get half lock on my steering before they catch on the inner arch. :banghead: Anyone know where I can get some longer wheel bolts and spacers from so the wheels come out to the edge of my widearch kit?

wheels spacers are not safe.

Any other ideas then? Bigger/Smaller offset?

19's are just too big for a Civic. If you must, you will most likely also need to modify the fenders. It's just too big of a pain, plus in my opinion it looks rediculous.

You can use spacers up to a point. I recommend 7-8 full turns of your lugs for proper engagement. Anything less and you could work the lugs loose = BAD!

I use a 3mm spacer for some of my wheels. Just make sure you check the torque on your lugs once in awhile.

Also you will not pass inspection using spacers.

i have 18x7.5 on my 2000 Civic EX and the rear tends to rub the inner part of my wheel well when i hit small potholes/hills on the road....im from NY, so the roads are shitty. they dont rub all the time, but they rub the most when i have weight/people in the back. i no longer ride anyone in my car except for the passanger that sits in the front. i see you guys talking bout spacers, and have one question, would i need spacers on all four wheels, or can i just get a pari for the rear?? also, anyone have any recommendations on which spacers to buy, or does it even matter? i know they come in different sizes, so what size would one recommemd for me??...i dont want the tires to stick out too much either. hopa ya can help.

19's fit on the front with only a quarter turn lost and the rear loves them. The fenders did have to be rolled but that is little problem. I need an extra inch of arch fillage though! If I cant use spacers what can I do?

They do come in different sizes. I run 3mm spacers since my 15x7" 45mm offset wheels were hitting the rear upper control arm. Now I have 38mm offset and the tires are now hitting the fenderliners.

You would prolly want 1-2mm spacers - that's about all you could prolly use.

Right I may be able to get some wheels that are custom fit. Does the hub move toward the outside or inside as the offset figure increases??

Higher number wheels more under the fenders. Lower number the wheels move outwards.
