incorrect. s2k and 04+ civic are 5x114.3

OP, the s2k fronts (rears are too wide) might fit but they have pretty high offset so you need to watch the inner clearance. i assume this is the same with the newer civics, not sure their offset though. also dont put 17" (newer ap2 or 09 si) they are too big.

The S2000 wheels have a really crappy offset. They look horrible on civics. The only reason they look somewhat acceptable on S2000s is because the S2000 hub is pushed out so far.

The fronts will def. fit. They're 16x6.5 +50something (AP1). the AP1 rear wheels are 16x7.5 +50something...so even the rears should fit just fine.

I'd do 4 rears if you can find them. It's still gonna look kinda crappy, IMO.

The AP2 fronts are 17x7.5 + 50something and the rears are 17x8.5 +60something IIRC.

The fit wheels also look crappy on civics/integras. The HFP 16'' fit wheels have a +50something offset with a width of 6.5, IIRC. The 15'' versions also have a weak offset for civics. And aren't fit wheels 4X100?? Correct me if I'm wrong there.

Why are you trying to do this with only OEM wheels? Last I checked, there was no shortage of aftermarket 16'' 5 lug wheels.

A 16X7 +40 will fit great without any mods needed to the fenders or excessive amounts of camber. I'd go as far as 16X7.5 +40 with stock fender work...err...as long as you're not SLAMMED to the ground.

You could go with a 40 to 50 range. Also take into consideration the size(height) and width of your wheels and tires.
