Lowest offset on a civic...

I'm looking at some wheels for the civic but the offset is going to be a prob. I'm safe with +30 and up but I'm looking at some wheels that are 15x7 +15 and +20. Anyone here have any idea if I can fit any of those sizes???

the people that try to stuff those under their fenders end up running retarded camber and tiny tires to try and make it work. I vote: no

ya the eg can take lower offsets with rolled fenders... what I'm worried about now is that I'm only lowered just under 2 inches. so wheels like that would look all sorts of wrong.
