I have a 2001 ITR and I purchased and installed a Rotora Big Brake kit on my car. They work great; I can stop on a dime with them and they look amazing with my NHB paint.
I have 18s on there now and they fit fine besides the fact of the big size and weight factor. The lowest size I can go is 17s so I am in the market for some new wheels. Volks are my choice to go with. The problem is choosing the perfect offset to fit over my brakes. Some people have said +40 some have said +45 IDK. I know its more of a personal preference, but I just want to know the lowest offset I can go so that way I know where to start looking.
The specs of the brake kit that I found on their application page are as follows. Thanks for the help and info.
INTEGRA (TYPE R) 97-01 DC2
F = Front
RBK006.01AC = Part #
Caliper
4 = Caliper Pistons
FC4-A = Caliper Type
Disc
295X23 = Disc Size (MM)
1-PIECE = Disc Type
Wheel Chart
25 = A (MM)
174 = B (MM)
96 = C (MM)

Just curious, but why do you need such huge brakes on a 2500lb car?
And caliper clearance is dictated by not only by the wheel's offset, but also the wheel design itself. No one can probably answer your question accurately as not a lot of people have that brake kit (honestly, it is overkill) but their knowledge will be limited to what wheels they've personally used on them.
