Diff offset for Front and Rear Rims

[Wire]

My ride is a FF (front engine, front wheel drive) like most of us here.

Normal offset is +42.

Was wondering if I can actually install

Front : +42 offset rims

Rear : +38 offset rims

 

With this setup, I will have slightly wider wheel base for my rear.

 

Understand that this setup will give stable ride for FR (Front Engine, Rear wheel Drive).

 

Anyway comments for our normal FF cars?

Nobody knows or can't understand my question?

If you rotate your tyres, can the rear rim offset fit without problems clearing the brakes?

Also, if you don't rotate your tyres, you'll need to spend more on tyres to maintain them, is it worth it?

 

With a lightweight rim and good tyres, you should already get pretty good handling for Honda Civic (you driving this right?) unless you want to chiong.

+3 -3 from the default offset looks ok. -4, you may like to check if it rubs the inside. put a 1mm spacer?

Thanks for the reply.

Didn't think of the problem face when doing rotation

nothing will go wrong with a staggered look... just that you won't be able rotate your tires..

 

if your car alignment has no problems, the front will just wear off sooner abit, just replace two tires at a time lor...

 

no big time danger... just that ur car will look nicer without 'inset' wheels...
