Default Buying Enkei RPF1s asap! Question first

Well after searching and searching these are the wheels I want. I've got a 97 Integra and I want them in 16"s. They offer 16x7 with a 43 offset or 35 offset and 16x8 with 38 offset. and I'm wondering how they will look. The car is a daily driver and I plan to lower it alittle with either H&R Sport or Eibach Prokit. I do not want the tires to rub at all but I want the wheels to look nice and more flush with the fenders. I don't like how the stock wheels sit so far back in the fenders. Any help is great! Would like to go get them asap!

That will let you use either 205/45-16 or 215/45-16. I recommend 205/45-16 for the extra clearance you might need when you lower the car.

Sounds good!

I found this picture of my year with the 16x7 with 35 offset.



I hope there is no rubbing.

Got them on the way and a set of 205/45/16 on the way too. I forgot to talk to Enkei about the stupid teal valve stems though. So I'm going to have to paint them silver or black I guess.
