I have been looking at a few for the last week or so and saw that one with the horrible offset (Just had to laugh) I don't want that to happen to me.
So an 88 CRX Si is looking for 15" and the question is the offset. I will not be lowering it. I have a bad back so low profiles are out of the question.
Been on tirerack.com but I can't trust them fully.
Thx 4 the help.

why can't you trust them? they are very knowledgeable. they may not have the best prices on rims but they sure have some of the best prices on tires and they know what fits and what tires will suit your driving preferences and road/weather conditions.
if you get a 14" wheel then 14x6.5 or 14x6 +42 offset will be fine. 185/60-14 will be the tire size and may suit your needs/preferences. since you mention the back ailment.any ways..
if you opt for 15" then a 15x6.5 +43 offset will do.. not too flushed and not too tucked..just right. if you get 15" tires then it will be low profile no matter what..the size would be 195/50
if you don't want to spend as much then you can look into oem wheels from a del sol or integra model like fat five wheels or ls mesh.
check in the hondamarketplace, ebay and craiglsist for the best deals.

Thanks rim bully,
I really appreciate it. I didn't consider 50 series to be low profile but it is.
So 43 is the magic number.
I have been thru them a few times. I am looking for a black rim with a polished edge. The rex is black and I like black on black.
Thanks again,
SM
