the offset for the lenso's is +25, i don't really know what that means though b/c i usually see offests in smaller numbers? also i was wondering if that was the smallest possible offset to fit. there's a guy at my track that has gsr brakes on his hatch and he fit some no name 13's on there? i would ask him, but i haven't seen him out there in a while :P

my 15s clear my dx brakes, I don't remember the offset, but as long as they clear I'm happy. my car looks like it's ready for some rock crawling with the new wheels on

i`ve seen someone did it by grinding the caliper a little and used a 0.5mm spacer
oh he was using HX rims too.

DON`T COUNT ON ME :P

I just bought some 13x8 weld drag wheels and I got them with a 5 inch backspace, but they didn't fit without my 5mm spacers. I have to use spacers with my HX wheels anyways to clear my brakes so it wasn't a big deal. I bought them because I thought they would fit without spacers so I dunno what the deal is. I have used lenso's also and I don't need spacers for them to fit over my brakes. I tried searching honda-techa while ago and really didn't find too much on exactly what backspace I needed.
