Because people are cheap and don't want to buy new tires.
Don't bother posting pictures if they are chrome because I'm going to be relentless.

damn all the hate.... everyone has different preferences. So i like big rims and yes they chrome so sue me. i currently own 5 hondas and the only one that dont have 20's or above is the 91 Acura integra and if i could fit them on there they would to.. lol anyways if you dont want to help me out thats cool just thought thats what this forum was for not to have people flame me for my choice in rims...

Personally I don't like the wheels but it's not my car so who cares? Lots of people here run 20s on the 8th gen which I personally feel looks too big except for a few wheels.
Do you know the wheel width and offset? That will have a bigger effect on how much you can lower than the diameter. There's a member here running 20x10.5 all the way around and he's slammed on coilovers. You will probably just have to mess with the camber to get it to not rub.

My god, what would make a person buy those? Looks like a chrome dipped flower. What do those weigh, about 65 lbs each? Those are just disgusting .. those wouldn't even look good on a 95 Chevy Caprice.

LMAO your my hero for saying that :lmao:
they do look like chrome flowers lol. the cheap chrome dipped steel looking design aside, even the lip itself is on the ugly side. i could see these on a slab but definitely not on a car made after the early 90s. i suppose it's a good lesson that just because something's possible doesn't make it a good idea. hey, at least his hood is closed nice and tight.

Wow those tires are STRETCHED, I'm not sure what is the standard tire width on these cars, IIRC it is 235, if so then you've gone down a notch to 225 in terms of road adhesion performance, there is also much less shock/impact absorbtion from the 30 series rubber bands on these rims.
But I guess it's fashion over function in this case.

They really don't look stretched very much. That wheel isn't more than 22x8 if that. 235 is stock for the 8's, so 225 wouldn't really be stretched.
