Default offset...+30? is that ok?

well am thinking of purchasing some wheels w/ that offset. to me, its sounds way off and will stick out, but the owner says he runs it jus fine. i jus want to verify. i know 35 is ok, but 30? thats pushing it...

thats too far out, +35 lines up dead even or a little outside the fenders.

but are we talking about a lowered car?

you can't directly compare LS/RS/GS-R to that of an ITR. ITR has a bit wider track (5mm) in the rear to start with. So, +20mm would stick out a wee-bit more than your picture. To some it's not a big difference, but to me it makes a whole lot of difference.

GSR:
Front Track: 1475 mm / 58.1 in
Rear Track: 1470 mm /57.8 in

ITR:
Front Track 1480 mm / 58.3 in
Rear Track 1475 mm / 58.1 in

Assuming an ITR with stock ride height:
35mm offset, the tires will stick out a liiittle bit with 205 tires. It should not have any rubbing.

30mm offset would look really funky/ugly, unless the car is lowered and with -2 or -3 of camber.

on that note, would there ever be caliper clearance issues? I always thought hondas needed to be between +45-35 offset. So we can go all the way down to +20

The lower the + offset is, the spokes/center of the wheel are further away from the hub so you get MORE brake clearance.

But depending on how slammed and offset, he may have to roll the fenders.

That all seems to be for looks. To each his own.
