Is the offset related to how big of a lip my wheel can have? If so what size should I get?

Default Is the offset related to how big of a lip my wheel can have? If so what size should I get?

Does the offset of the wheel determine how fat of a lip the wheel can have? If this is the case then what offsets should I try and get for a 94 Integra so that I can have the biggest lip possible? I am going gunmetal wheel with polished lip and would like a big lip.. Thanks guys...

No dude. From what I know the offset only says how far the rim sticks out. On normal Integra offsets are 45. What rim did u have in mind?

for every inch wider you go you wanna take off 5mm of offset. so if you want a 17x7 wheel you want a +40mm offset to keep it stock.
