Icon2 98 civic offset

what is the max offset i could use without any spacers or fender rolling on my 98 hx ?? i have factory alignment, with eibach sportline springs on kyb gr-2 struts ..
i would like to get a decently aggressive look , i was thinking maybe +30 would be alright to run ?

I wouldn't go lower than a +30 on a 7 inch rim. You can probably fit a bit bigger in the front, but the back will need to be rolled to get any wider.

thanks i had 17x7.5 on before not sure of the offset but they fit pretty good .. my plan was to get a 16x7 +30 . so that works out pretty good. also how much work would need done to put a set of spun supamesh +20 on the car ?

i seen the post of some users arguing over offset and fender rolling .. i just need to know will a 16x7 +30 fit without any fender rolling or camber adjustment ?? i can deal with the camber myself . but i wont get my fenders rolled .. or would a +38 be a better fit and less hassle with all the other junk

Each car will be different due to varying degrees of camber from lowering. You can most likely get away with 16x7 +30 with no camber and not rolling fenders. +38 will clear for sure.

thanks for making it pretty clear without all the others arguing .. im prob an inch and a half from the ground maybe a little more .. but i have all the adjustable trailing arm arms .. so camber is no biggy , but the front is my concern thats why i wanna make sure i get something decent enough to look agressive without or very little adjutment that will fit the front also that i wouldnt have to adjust .. sorry for all the questions just wanted to get a clear answer without 20 people all having a different answer
