New look for my GE8...NEW Rims coming soon.

Hi guys.I'm planning to change the rims of my FIT.I love my Tenzo-R DC-5 rims but i'm looking MAYBE to change the look of my GE8.My Tenzo-R are 17"x7" with a 42 offset.My question is how low or high i can get with the offset.My tires are 205/40/17 and right now i don't have any rubbing issue at all.If any friend in the forum have a different setting than mine and want to share a little help i will be grateful.Maybe i must keep the same specs of my Tenzo.Guys...ALL help is welcome.THX and take care everybody....This are my wheels right now.

Hi Kenchan.My FIT has a drop with T1R S-coils.My Tenzo-R has a 42 offset.Did 38 or 40 will be OK without rubbing?

Hi to all my good friends here in FF.I just buy new rims for my GE8.They have the same specs that my DC-5 black rims.My new rims are TENZO-R Tracers in Hyper Silver.Looking around the forum i don't see any one with them.I buy Tenzo-R again because i like them.I never have a problem with them.I love very much 5 spoke rims because they are very easy to clean.I was thinking about a mesh style BUT cleaning them will take some time when washing the car.Right now i will keep the DC-5 too.I was trying to sell them local BUT i like them.I still have my OEM rims with tires.In other words i have 3 sets of rims and i can give my GE8 any look anytime.Is like having 3 FITS at the same time.I also buy a new front used license plate.My car nick name is "QuikSilver" and i found a used vanity license plate that said:"QWK SIL".Very soon will upload new pix with the new rims and plate.THX guys fot watching and for your positive comments.Take care everybody....
