Default Just test fitted some Maya RT5

Front Wheels 20x9 ET 30 w/ 245/35/20 Toyo T1R
Rear Wheels 20x10.5 ET 29 w/ 245/35/20 Nittos 555

Rear doesnt rub at all. Need to change front tires to 225/35/20 to get rid of rubbing issues. Front and rear fenders are cut and rolled.

How is your paint on the front fenders after rolling them? I'm thinking of cutting mines but afraid of the rust.

Stop being gay, I grinded the heck outta my civic and no rust. Don't worry about it, grinding > rolling.


To OP, didn't realize they were different wheels. Thought they were the same **** u had on before...

Maya > the rest

Whos wheels are these?

Yea, people told me rolling the rear should be fine (including you) but I wanna know how his front held up because im going to have to roll the front with the wheel set-up I want.
