4x100 - 15x7.5 or 15x8 wheel options
I can't seem to find too many wheels with these sizes. I would assume offset would be accomodating so I'm not too worried about specific offsets yet. Does anyone know what choices are out there for an affordable wheel in these sizes?

Re: 4x100 - 15x7.5 or 15x8 wheel options (Sean @ ESG)
The reason there aren't many options is because those sizes are too wide for most of the tires that get used on 15" wheels, especially for smaller cars (like Civics and Integras) with a 4x100 bolt pattern.
Remember, FIRST, decide what size and model tires you are planning to use. THEN decide on the wheel width.
What size and model tire are you planning to mount on these wheels? And what kind of car is this for (model, year, version, etc)?

but other than that you're choices are limited.. 949 is pretty much the cheapest..
if you go into works and stuff, its more on the "pricey" side...

I also wouldn't hesitate to throw the 275's on these.

They don't rub at all, and I'm not using any spacers. They do come quite close to the trailing arm, but many folks are using these now on much more fierce setups then mine.

Those wheels only come in 15", just as an FYI. To answer your question, here's a quote from the 6UL FAQs and Fitment Info. page on the 949 Racing website:
"Civic EG EJ1 92-95 15x7.5, 15x8 front & rear. Limited to 205/50. Front 225/45 or 225/50 require fender roll and pull"
