dude, youre going about this backwards.
why would you buy 50mil overfenders if you arent sure you need them?
that hatch on s1's has maybe 30mil.


this is going to turn out terrible, unless you research more, or stop being an asshole when people offer help.

They are origin 50mils, IIIRC.

His wheels are 17x9.5 and 18x10.5, I cant remember what offsets.

But exactly what Tim said, keep being a dick and no ones going to fucking help you. Burgy knows his shit about wheel fitment, as does Tim. The look you posted is pulled off doing exactly what Burgy said, making the car fit the wheels, not the opposite.

Step one, pick one side, either nutswing on these wannabe jdm fanboys, and go with the yay my shit sticks out way too far, so i'll over camber to compensate, and just deal with rubbing all the while having a car that cant perform worth shit, or you can go about this with a brain, and either take a bunch of measurements, and or just buy this Percy's 01201 Percy's WheelRite Wheel Fitment Tool then figure out what you want using the tool.

Wheel fitment has nothing to do with being JDM, ok?

Wheel fitment, has something to do with getting the wheels on the car properly and not going "oh shit my wheels stick way the fuck out, i'll do some negative camber, play it off as cool and everyone will follow"

Lookup fit in a dictionary, and maybe "flush" while you are at it, usually around here "flush" gets passed off for "oh shit my crap sticks way the fuck out"

That's mexi poke, nothing like flush.

As far as fitment, I know what it is. But I guess putting a v8 into something, is less of a me too/fanboy thing.

Oh wait, no its not.
