If you check your own site, I think you posted some of my brother's hatch
with these wheels. His is the black Civic Si with white Kosei K1's.
The one with the B-Hatch Racing stickers.

Maybe some one can photoshop it for you.

I have them on my 99 EK HB. Get the one with 45mm offset that's the perfect offset for both Integra and Civic

Yes, 45mm offset is good for a 7 inch rim.
My brother has the 38mm offset and he has to be partiular about what
tires he gets, since tires tend to vary in how far they "hang over" the lip of the rim.
To bulge-y of a tire causes a bit of rub. I guess this can be changed with the tire
width 195 vs. 205, but apples to apples some tires sit on a rim differently.
Bottom line. 45 mm sounds goot.

I will agree with the offset , I had no rubbing with 195's, now I have a slight rub with 205's. I am running 15 x 7 K1's on a 5G HB w/ +38mm offset

I love my K1's. They're a +45. I chose those because the factory is a +42 and I wanted a 205 tire. They tuck nicely in back and barely rub up front.

Cool, thanks for all the replies guys. I think ive got my mind set on the 45mm offset. Now all i gotta do is save for them. Anyone know any good places to get them beside http://www.tirerack.com ?

You can go to a local shop and see what deal they can make for you.
They will prolly have to go through TireRack, but they can always cut into
their profit if they want to hook you up. Otherwise, just whine and say "Why should I buy them from you guys? Tire Rack is cheap and I don't have to pay tax."
They might fold and give you a really goo deal. If you get the tires at the same time, you could also swing something with that price too.
Sometimes you just gotta dig in and be a sunuvabitch.
