Rota p1's 5th grn

hey guys i am still a lil bit of a noob at this so bare with me. I am recently looking at a set of rota p1's that our 18x8 with an offset 30mm and a hub bore of 67.1. Would these have any problems on a 5th gen lude ? also if there isnt any issues, what is the recommended tire size for them ?
Thanks

have fun destroying your fenders, especially if you are lowered.

Save your money and lower your car first.if you put 18's on a stock prelude you will turn it into a 4x4 offroader.stick with 17's.they fit our cars the best IMO.another thing to consider that most people forget about is that if you put 18's with an overall larger diameter than stock on your car you will throw off your speedo so you will never really know how fast you are going so have fun getting speeding tickets.

As long as you stay within a certain tire size you shouldn't throw off the speedometer that much.

4bangincivic-true iit won't throw it off that much but it will still be wrong(in my town the cops are speed nazis so even a little off would mean tickets for me).

OP-how much you lower your car depends on your situation and environment.for example, my car is lowered about 2in which is about as low as I can go because it is my only vehicle and my DD.so this in turn means my prelude turns into a snow rally car during the winter and I do not raise it and so far have been lucky enough that my front bumper has not become a snow plow yet.however if your lude is a weekend/fun car then I say slam it as much as you can.
