ESM 002 Fitment questions
I've had my eyes on ESM's 002 wheelsets they offer. I've seen them on a Fit and was blown away by the quality these project. My question is, will they fit? and what will I have to do to make them fit properly...
The catch?
I have a 2010 Honda Insight lowered on Tanabe DF210s I dropped 1.5" in the front and 2.0" in the rear- after installation, and they have settled to these specs.
Currently running the stock wheelset which is 4x100 15x6" with a +45 offset 56.1 centerbore, I have 0 rubbing or wheel related issues. However looking for a new wheelset I stumbled upon ESM.
ESM wheel specs I am interested in are as follows: ESM-002
16x7.5 4x100 1.5" Lip +20 offset- 57.1 centerbore * Insight has a 56.1 centerbore will I require hub-centric rings to make up for the size difference?
or
16x9 4x100 3" Lip +20 offset- 57.1 center bore * same issue as stated above with centerbore being slightly larger than my factory hub offers...
What is your opinion gents?
And tire sizes would be greatly appreaciated as well with the two above mentioned wheelsets. I know there is members that are wheel gurus, and I am looking for the cleanist, "flush" haha look, My Hybrid hopefully will stand out in the crowd once complete.
Thanks!

These are the ESM 002's which I think look very proper on this gents fit above. I think he's on the 3" lip versions not 100% possibly even a member know's this car and can muster up a "username" ?
