The 2008 Honda Civic has several cataloged OEM wheel configurations, ranging from 6x15 to 7.5x17. Listed OEM pairings include 195/65R15, 205/55R16, 215/45R17, 205/50R17, and 225/45R17 tires, with ET45 shown across the supplied configurations. OEM backspacing values in the data range from 4.77 to 5.52 inches, without a size-by-size mapping.

The fitment uses a 5x114.3 bolt pattern, 64.1 mm center bore, and M12 x 1.5 lug nuts. The database also contains 110 documented custom builds, most commonly using 17- and 18-inch wheels; these records show observed setups only and do not confirm universal fit or clearance.

Frequently asked questions

What is the OEM wheel offset for a 2008 Honda Civic?

The 2008 Honda Civic has an OEM wheel offset of ET45 across the listed configurations. The cataloged OEM wheel sizes are 6x15, 6.5x16, 7x17, 6.5x17, and 7.5x17. Listed OEM backspacing values are 4.77, 5.02, 5.27, and 5.52 inches, but the supplied data does not map each backspacing value to a specific wheel size.

Does the 2008 Honda Civic have staggered OEM wheels?

The listed OEM configurations use a square setup rather than a staggered setup. OEM wheel and tire combinations include 6x15 with 195/65R15, 6.5x16 with 205/55R16, 7x17 with 215/45R17, 6.5x17 with 205/50R17, and 7x17 with 225/45R17.

What bolt pattern and lug specification does the 2008 Honda Civic use?

The 2008 Honda Civic uses a 5x114.3 bolt pattern, also written as 5x4.5, with five lug nuts. The thread specification is M12 x 1.5. Bolt pattern alone does not confirm wheel compatibility; the center bore and other fitment details must also match.

What is the center bore of the 2008 Honda Civic?

The center bore is 64.1 mm. A wheel with a center bore smaller than 64.1 mm cannot be installed on the hub. A matching bolt pattern by itself is not enough to confirm compatibility.

What custom wheel sizes have been documented for the 2008 Honda Civic?

The database contains 110 documented custom builds for the 2008 Honda Civic. The most common documented diameters are 18-inch with 53 builds and 17-inch with 49 builds. These are observed setups in the database, not universal fit or clearance confirmation.

Which custom wheel and tire combinations are documented for this Civic?

Documented custom examples include 18x8.75 ET20 with 215/40R18, 17x9.5 ET15 with 205/40R17, 18x8.5 ET30 with 225/40R18, 17x8.25 ET35 with 215/45R17, and 18x7.5 ET45. The supplied records do not provide universal clearance confirmation for these setups.

Each OEM row is a catalog configuration. Offset ranges are not collapsed when the database has exact setups. Documented aftermarket builds are observed setups only — not universal fit or clearance confirmation.
