- Tue Jul 08, 2008 3:45 am #61201 Im sorry if the answer to this question is in another post, but i couldnt find it.

I just picked up a 93 dx hatch, and have a set of 4x100 17x7" rims i want to put on it, i beleive the wheels have a 42mm offset. Im told that the car has about a 1" drop from factory ride height and im wondering if these will fit, and what size tires i should put on them. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance guys....

Do Not PM me your technical questions. Post them in the forum!

That's what I was thinking too. But since he has the wheels already, he might as well try it on. Or he can sell those 17"s and buy 15"/16"s.
