Default 15x8 wheel on 96 accord?

i know i konw this has been talked about before. but i have a 96 accord coupe and i want 15" 15x8 and im guessing around 15 offset. Ive seen it on civics with rolled fenders and/or camber kits and all that. But does or have anyone had 15x8 on their accord or can it be done?

It's going to require a rather radical offset, considering all of that additional 2" of width has to all go to the outside.
Because of the existance of the verticle link which is part of the rear bearing knuckle, you've got no additional room behind the tire.

Now might be a good time to start talking about Wide Body kits. But I've only seem one for a sedan....
