Offset is the distance between the mounting surface of the wheel and the center of the rim.

To measure offset:

Lay wheel or tire/wheel face down on a level surface
put a straight edge across the wheel or tire
measure from the bottom of the straight edge to the ground - A
measure from the bottom of the straight edge to the mounting surface -B

offset = A/2 - B

You can lower it as much as you want, just expect a shitty ride under 2"

The rims will fit with a 205/40R17 size tire & if your speedo is accurate, when reading 60mph you will be going 58.2 MPH. Information found @

For Civics you need a 17x7" wheel with a 42-44mm offset and 205/40x17" tires. So your pick is perfect

That's your opinion. I think they look nice almost SSR COmpetitions which are twice the price.

I like those a lot. What color is your car? By the way, what kind of wheel is that? Like model? I wouldn't mind getting a set for my car.
