Thanks for the offering to look though.

Re: Motor is out!!

rsx rims are 7" wide however they arent going to fit on your 2g because of the offset and they'll hit the calipers. you could use spacers but i dunno how i would trust it.

I agree with you on the general concensus of using spacers, however I plan on using extended lugs, so the use of spacers wouldn't be an issue. Thanks for the heads up on the offset. I didn't know that the wheels would be cutting it that close to the calipers. I've seen a set of RSX wheels on a 2G before, but was unaware that the owner had to space the wheels out some.

I'm planning on eventually using a set of FD3 wheels, so I'll have to use the extended lugs and spacers anyways since the RX's hub is slightly larger than the 2G's.

Thanks for the information on the width though.. It's definitely appreciated and I also appreciate your concern about using spacers.

Back to the topic, sorry to semi-jack your thread bro. )
