Stock offset is 45.

However, if you are planning on installing aftermarket brakes at some point (Brembo, Willwood, etc), you should consider a 38 offset. Aftermarket brakes will not fit with a 45 offset. Trust me, I speak from experience.

I don't think anyone is answering because it's easily searchable. Google is your friend:

That's not something you need to worry about at all. I don't even look at those numbers when I buy wheels. I just picked these up tonight, anyone name these? +35 offset, lines up right to the fender. The FN01RCs were too tucked in at +42. Right off the JDM fob boat!

Im not 100% sure but I think you would be fine assuming you had the correct hub centering rings.

NOTHING!!! GET SOME WHEELS ALREADY!!!!
If your worried about that get some hubcentric rings for your peace of mind, otherwise the hub size doesn't usually affect Hondas as much as RWD cars.
