I am on 16x7 w/205 50 tires and again it is flush, in fact I think it pokes out in the rear... I will scan the wheels to see if the offset is on them but I am guessing these wheels are about +30 or even +25 as they really sit flush. Makes turning a bitch for real w/o P/S

This thread is so old, but will this Acura rim fit my wagon?
98-99 accura 16" with 50 offset? I'm assuming it should?

This thread has a lot of wheel/tire combinations for reference:
http://www.cb7tuner.com/vbb/showthread.php?t=206779
If you do the math on the position of the inner tire bead, many of those wheels result in the inner bead being about 5 inches from the mounting surface of wheel.
For example: 15 x 7, 40 mm offset
40/25.4 (1.575 inches) + 3.5 (half the width of the wheel between beads) = 5.075 inches
For comparison, the OEM wheel: 15 x 5.5, 50 mm offset
50/25.4 (1.968 inches) + 2.75 = 4.719 inches
For the Acura wheels: 16 x 6, 50 offset
50/25.4 (1.968 inches) + 3.0 = 4.968 inches
So the Acura wheel puts the inner bead 0.25 inches further inboard than a stock wheel, but doesn't put the inner bead surface quite as far inboard as the example above, so they should fit. Your outer bead surface will be 0.25 inches further out than the OEM wheel.Last edited by Fleetw00d; 04-10-2020, 10:46 PM.90 LX 4dr 5 spd 396,014 (sold 1/1/2022) - MRT: http://www.cb7tuner.com/vbb/showthread.php?t=201450

It would be painstaking to update all of the images in the front of this thread,
very understandable ... never thought I'd even need this info ...
Thanks ..
