Need help choosing some wheels
Hey Honda Tech!
I have a 94 civic hatch with stock everything (swapped in an si d16z6). eventually i plan on doing a full disk conversion... most likely from a gsr. however, right now i need help finding some nice looking rims. I love the look of when the wheels stick out from the fenders a little but i don't want to loose all of my handling. i am willing to give up some function for form, however function is the most important.

i want the car to sit exactly like this. i love the clearance, i love the size of wheels, i love the offset. i just don't even know where to start looking for wheels like this.
also, how low do you think this car is dropped?
Thanks for any help!

#1 IMO that car looks terrible, BUT if that's what you want to emulate, it's your money
#2 The GSR disk conversion on the EG will push out your hubs about 10-15mm, so factor that in when people tell you 16x8 +20 /thread
#3 You will never be able to lower your car very much with the tire sitting past the fender, and will almost certainly rub on every bump
#4 You WILL grow up to regret this decision

From the Forum Rules and FAQ:
PS. Function gets thrown out the window with a setup like that. Taking a turn and cutting into your tires, doesn't make your handling ability increase.
6b. No opinion threads for the appearance of wheels.
Examples:
"Which wheel will look better on my car?"
"What color wheels should I get?"
