What size rims?

[f20bcivic]

The rims that ae on the car in the pic are 15x7 but the offset it -35 so it dosent let it sit at all in there the brakes hit the wheels so I am looking to get some 16x7 with a off set of +40 not to sure if those will work thou

Perhaps something with a different face, less lip would clear. Is the caliper hitting the barrel of the wheel or the back of the wheel face?

GOT EM. 40 off set fit it perfectly! will put pics of wheels soon!!!

Glad to see you overcame the wheel fitment issue. Kinda like the looks of the 4 spokes! Really looking forward to you getting it on the road and letting us know how that BR Racing shock/strut set performs in daily use.

Glad you got it figured out.

Hey guys its been a while got busy with life! I got the hasport axels installed all steel braded brake lines, got a willwood master brake cylinder with the brake booster delete kit installed, have been cleaning up the interior and cleaning up the wiring! aiming for the car to be ready for the track by mid summer!

Hey everyone sorry for not keeping much updates was working on it a lot slower than expected since I was busy getting my shop built this summer to have a better place to work on cars at. I have finished my project finally! (at least the swap part of it lol) I got it all up and running its pretty much road worth at the moment! only thing I need to do is get a Throttle positioning sensor that broke in the accident. I am very satisfied with the swap! In total I spent $3200 this includes Hasport axles and mounts, BC coilover suspension, Aem fuel pump, aluminum radiator and misc stuff all brand new nothing was used. I will be creating a thread soon on the body restoration and paint once I've worked out the all the electrical and mechanical kinks which should be very little since it was mostly a straight forward swap.

 

Here is a video link of it running:
