Default Euro style wheels....would you hit it?

I saw these and thought they might look cool on some of our Hondas, especially the older models. I love the classic style, but I'm not sure if they would look appropriate on Civics and Integras. They're 16" and available in a variety of bolt patterns and widths from 7.5" to 9.5".

Thoughts?

Good old TH lines. Yeah they are very nice wheels, the offsets usually pose the problem. That and they just aren't cheap wheels so most people don't want to experiment with all that money. You can now get them with lips that will actually cut through most curbs but they are rediculously expensive with that option.

I wanted these for my integra, but I was a pansy and went with SSR's. Definitely a high quality wheel but you must be slammed as far as possible to make them work

They would look great if the car was slammed, the problem is the offset on these wheels. The only real width you would be able to run is 15x8s as they are available in 38 offset, but the width would surely rub. The offsets are too far off to be lowered enough to pull these off

FYI mine are 15x8 +13 with 195/45's and I'm probably dropped about 4". So they do fit, but they rub like ****'s.
