Default Wheel fitment Help

Recently i purchased some XXR 522 15x8 0+ wheels. they are currently on my ek hatch and stick out a good 2 inches past the fender -__-. the car will soon be bagged and i will not be able to lower it. is there any possibly way to get these wheels to fit? like making the car wide body, or possibly pulling fender? re4ally dont want to camber out the wheels cause tires are way too expensive.

if its bagged...then roll and stretch the fenders and put some camber on them to clear...then USE THE BAG SETUP to raise and lower the car.,..raise it up enough and it will pull some camber out of it...and wont ruin the oh so expensive tires...which are what? less than 100 each?

Firstly, unless the car is aggressively lowered, that low of offset will look stupid.

Secondly, that low of offset with those tires will look stupid on this car.

Thirdly, it will probably still look stupid regardless of what you do.

Fourthly, http://www.honda-tech.com/showthread.php?t=2614449

Best bet, get a smaller tire for more stretch, adjust camber (although with bags, natural camber will take care of it), and don't be a bitch and ride with car fully lifted when on bags.

Step 1: Sell those shitty wheels

Step 2: Buy wheels that fit, preferably ones that arent so shitty

step 3: Don't bag your civic like a faggot

step 4: Buy some decent coilovers, install, adjust properly.

step 6: ?????????????????????????????

Step 7:: Profit.
