Question On Rim Size

This might be a real stupid question but I just bought a set of 17's off my friends 95 prelude. Now the question is will the offset on the rims fit a 96 hatchback with not too much wheel rub? Looking for help

Those preludes are 4x114, so unless the rims are dual bolt pattern, they wont even fit on your civic.

why didn't you try to see if they fit, before you bought them? oh well, it's your friend right.....he should take'em back?

that's not an excuse to purchase something that doesn't fit. It's always smart to test the product/fit it before you purchase it.

What is the offset of the wheels? A Civics wheel offset is 45 stock.

What is your suspension set-up? If your car is very low, any size wheel can rub.
