Rim and Suspension Questions??
I can see the pictures now...and you want a LOW offset (as in a low number)....just like DriveaHonda said....and I'd personally recommend 16s over 15s. Your 96 is a larger, rounder vehicle then a EF, so a bigger wheel is needed to pull of the same look. Granted people with Hondas usually give me nastey looks when I mention anything larger then a 15, haha.

I want some sportmax 002's. But I want the big 3.5 lip that comes on the 8 inch rim. So I am at a loss. I will figure something out! Thanks for all the help.

Wheel offset is the distance from the center of the wheel to the mounting pad of the wheel.
You will ned to go with a wider wheel, to get the wider lip, and if all of this scrubs, you justuse bump stops in the struts to stop bottoming out, and roll fenders.
There is no set foumula to do this as you asked earlier, If you want the poked look. If you need to explain the poked look, dont bother.

Have you checked out the "Low Offset Wheel Thread" on HondaTech?
I highly recommend it before you buy any wheels. Guys are running +10s and +20s on there, with 8Js, and they talk about what they have to do to fit it. They also talk about tire sizes, which is very important as well.

. I will let you know what I choose and see what you think. Do you guys know anything about stretching the tires to fit on a 8 inch rim? It sounds unsafe.
