Haha yes they will happen! @bb1boy
In the mean time i swapped in the Euro R rim's fronts have 5mm spacers to clear the caliper bracket and rears have 10mm spacers.
Thoughts on wheels? Keep the white or keep the euro r?

I much prefer the euro r wheels tbf, although they look a bit small on the car from some angles.
Tyre profile too small? Need spacing out a bit?

They do look smaller than the RSX rims haha because the rsx is concaved unlike the euro r, where they bend in at the lip
Tire size i went from stock 205 / 50 /R16 (white rims) to 205 / 45 / R16 (Euro r)
Went down on side wall because i kept rubbing on full turns. I'll take better pictures today going to go out for a drive in a few minutes.

Thanks! haha yah, just so you know for the fronts you MUST run a MINIMUM 5 MM Spacer otherwise the wheels won't clear the Caliper Bracket.tom023 wrote:Wow those euroR rims look smashing. I need a set for mine!

I did a test and after bolting it down i could not spin it free hand it was stuck on the bracket. (Did not bolt it in all the way just snug)
