Honda Ef Sedan on Corvette Salad Shooters

[vishes]

With above, not a fan of fender flares unless it's oem or on an old school jap.

suggestion?

I have been toying with similar wheel fitment issues and came to a conclusion; Do the ITR 5 lug conversion, the wheel selection is astounding!

For those of you that dont know you get 5x114.3 bolt pattern, 11" front brakes (does limit you to wheels 15" or bigger), Disc rears and 5mm increase your original offset.
I was able to do my setup for $600 (Canadian so probably cheaper state side) with new rotors pads and ball joints. It took some time to source stuff out but with some resourcefulness (craigslist and kijiji) and some time at local wreckers it can be done for cheap.

I opted to extend my lugs right off the bat to accommodate spacers.

if you want a break down of parts required let me know.



Anyways i have to say i like where your project is going. some may not like the "mexi-poke" but to each there own.
if you ask most people who pass cars like ours on the highways they'd probably bash it too for the lack of practicality but that's just the nature of the beast. imo more camber all around would look sick and maybe pull the fenders some more instead of flares (imo flares dont suit honda body lines)

Good Luck! and keep calm and carry on!

looks sweet from the side, flares or some serious pulling and shaping. lower pros also but looks sweet regardless

Let's see those 8.5s!

Sold the car going with something else, will post new build when I start really getting into it

Here is a wagon with 8.5's and looking much cleaner. I say go for it.

[StancedEf_est.1990]

The only negative thing I will say about it is the wheels need to be smaller diameter and width but you know that being that you are searching for 8.5's. I'd love to see some classic 14's on this car and much much lower!

thanks man, never heard of those rims going to look into them and working on going lower

Being that I've been around the stance scene for a while, and the stance scene always has vw kids, and vw kids always have corvette wheels, I get kind of burnt out on seeing them. However, the styling of your car and the styling of the wheels actually work really well together. As has been stated already, smaller tires and more camber or thinner wheels would look better. Obviously your fenders are pretty beat, and you know that, so if you did over fenders that would accomplish two things: 1. your wheels would fit 2. it would cover up the damage and wrinkles you've got going on. Also just curious here... if you went through all the trouble to actually repaint the car, why didn't you paint the hood too?

the guy was trying to charge an extra 450 for the hood for no reason i'm trying to get new fenders as we speak along with a front n back bumper also a trunk and hood

nice car, lots of poke but hey, that makes it different from the rest. if you want to save yourself the work of polishing those wheels, i think white would look pretty nice with the cars color

i have a volvo lip that im not using anymore. where do you live around?

[StancedEf_est.1990]

Buddy of mine had some vette rims on his EF as well. 9.5in with 195 45s.

dope they look like a rim Honda should of made in 15 for this year civic

[StancedEf_est.1990]

Im all for a good amount of poke, but i still say you need 8.5's with 205/40/16 tires, a little bit more low, and your car would be so dope.


The 9.5's just dont do it.


Still subscribed because i wanna see it happen!

thanks bro the 9.5 weren't doing it in the front so went with the 8.5 in front I need 195/40r16 now, working on body work and finding a Volvo 740 front lip
