Default what is the largest wheel that will fit?*

i have a 98 civic coupe. looking to go 16s or maybe 17s. this one is just my DD so im going to keep camber/toe as stock as possible. also i dont want to roll/pull fenders. wondering what size/offset will tuck!!!!! without rubbing. on my old civic i had 17x7 with +40 offset with a 215/45/17 and it rubbed in the back. just trying to find something that won't rub. ive done a lot of searching but everybody wants something different. any help is much appreciated

i have an ej8 as well and I think 16x7 works best for it. 17 is a bit too big imo. btw ^ this stuff is mild dude, just be happy you did not post in gdd.

I would recomend this setup, close to no sacrifice in ride quality and flows with the car very well.

i just dont see how that would tuck when i couldnt get a 17x7 +42 to tuck. the 16x7 +40 will actually stick out further...
