Any onethat used 38 offset on Alum 14x6 rims with stock size tire 185/60/14 what was the trouble or does this work ok.
Or did you need a spacer. Is this off set to much? to work. These where on a honda.
I would like to hear any and all views or first hand on there set up.

I will be going to 15 later just have not got the rims I looking for yet

im running a offset of 35 in the front, i would work fine in the back as well as far as wheel well rubbing goes... the only things you need to check is the hub center bore on a honda is smaller than ours, bore it out? And check that the caliper doesnt hit the wheel anywhere.

What rabbit said, you'll probably need to bore them out a little bit and if they hit the calipers I would recommend a 5mm hubcentric spacer. But yes, they should work.
