Re: Big Brakes, part deux (archive)

: : Another alternative might be to buy a Honda steel wheel. Quite a few of them are 14" and have the correct offset to run on 2002's. I've seen many of them just laying around wrecking yards.

----------------------------------------------
I did try the spare of my civic, an uninflatable
one,, and the offset was incorrect, the rim being
to deep.
I did ask the question once and one of the recom-
mandation was to use a 320 steel wheel, the 13mm
offset push the wheel to the outside , freeing
the caliper, of course put a narrow size tire.

I did buy a fifth alloys and tires , it did cost
( sic )but the idea was that here ( Montreal )
the road are so full of holes , if I did break
an alloy, the time and the chance of fiding a
replacemnt wheel , I will use the fifth alloys
so the car will still be operative while I do
the search
