the rims in that picture are either 15 or 16×8 0 offset so 16×7 0offset should work with stretched tires and negative camber.

You'd need a lot of work to be able to ride +0 of an offset.

I'm not sure if they make slipstreams in a +0. Just go with some 16x8's +20 and you'll be good to go. You'll need to roll your fenders for them to fit ok

You'll probably need to roll your fenders no matter what, unless your fine with quite a bit of neg. camber. I've got 15x6.5 +34 rims on 195/50-15 tires on my ek right now with very little camber. I needed to roll my fenders and I still rub around full-lock.

ok here is what i want my civic to look like. in this pick this guy has 16x8 +20 offset. I like the wide tires and how flush they are with the fenders. Now to run wheels like these is a really neg camber needed or fenders have to be rolled? I just dont want to eat through tires like constantly

well after doing some research and using one of the stickies lol I found a tire size calc that tells if it will fit or not so im going to get a 16x8 with 45 offset and a 205/45 tire says its only 10mm closer to fender than oem so it should fit perfectly thanks for your input guys

But it's not going to have a deep lip like you wanted, which is why you started this thread, correct?

you can go to +40 off set and you'll be fine. +45 is pretty high of an offset and the wheels will look sunk in and not close to the fenders at all.
