15X8 +0 w/ a 195/40/15 (not sure if that exists) + rolled/pulled fenders is doable....probably like -2.5 to -3.5 camber

They won't "fit" but you can stuff them in with tons of work. They will poke out of the fenders about 2 inches. 002's are one of my favorite wheel but only in 0 offset and that's why i don't have a set. Think mexi-neon status with 12" -15 wire wheels. that's about the look.

I know this isn't a EG/EJ but this isn't mexi fitment:




Don't expect it to not involve some work though.


Basically you have to go really low, and you have to run lots of camber, and stretch tires and probably pull your fenders at least a little.



Edit:

This is a EK right? From what I could tell EGs/EKs have very similar fenders (since I've rolled both).



That's what happens when you do it wrong - it isn't low enough and the sidewall is way too big.



Finally found an EG:







PS Get 16s....you can't pull off this look with 15s on a EG....you can on a HF but not an EG.




edit again - those are +15s on those cars up there....so get some 16X8 +15s.




edit AGAIN!:



15X8 +15....not too bad 16s would look better and let you lower it more w/o actually having the body of the car be as low...and 16s have better tire choices.

Its possible, you will need to run a 195 tire & lots of neg camber. its the new trend I guess, not functional @ all but if yourent trying to be then go for it.

DAs have a lot more room than just about all the rest of the Honda lineup.
