Calling all with small # offsets
Found some wheels yesterday that I've been looking for a LONG time. Just need some of your thoughts. This is the set-up I've had on the car now for 2 years and no problems. Rota slip's 16x7, 40mm offset, -1.75 degree front camber, -1 degree rear camber. 215/45/16 azenis with no rubbing.
Here is the wheel I found, 3 wheels, black factory spoke polished lip, one is silver but will refinish to match the other 3. Sorry for the e-bay link but it the only copy I've found. Also a 15x7/4x100 bolt pattern/24m offset, not the 5 lug in the picture.

With my calculations, 40mm offset is 1.57" from center of the wheel. Now 24mm offset is .97" front center and there is only .63" difference between the two. Alittle over 1/2". Plan on running the new falkens 205/50/15 or going mad crazy with the 225/50/15 and fender mods. Has anyone played around with this these kind of #'s?

my guess is that it would stick out a little bit from the fenders. that offset would look good on, say a 240sx, but im pretty sure its too low for hondas. although you could always try it anyways and if it doesnt work, sell them to somone with a 240.
whoops, forgot the 4-100 thing, maybe someone with a miata

wow, ive never seen a honda with low offset wheels before, aside from looking like a rwd car
it doesnt look bad. im just so use to the sunken in look on fwd cars. im sure hes running some pretty negative camber to get those to fit in the fenders.
