I was a chrome guy back when I was into the camaro's (had two). I won't put down chrome style as I still like it. SS Cragers were my favorites. Car nice, house nice, as to the bra, you should get a 3m bra, heat mounted and almost invisible and cleans nicely with Meguiar's Detailer. When I go to Fremont, CA, lots of bugs, I have 3m bra on my Z and Sorento, and it's great. Plus don't need to worry about moisture under it and taking it off to dry etc.

The offset is very good on the wheels, it's hard to tell in the pics, but the wheels have a 3 inch lip on them so the wheels may look far under the wheel wells from a direct angle, but from the front or rear they come right out to the fender wells and look nice. I guess pictures don't always show what our eyes can see...

Not a fan at all. It would look better with a set of OEM track edition wheels and 25mm spacers.
Poorly fitted chrome wheels make chrome look even worse. The only way you can even think about pulling off the bling bling is with 19's or 20's with proper width, offset, tire size and stance.

8.5 front and rear? What is this, Hondata? lol. Unless you have some sort of 64 impala hiding out somewhere or an S10 dragging frame, I'm gonna need you to IMMEDIATELY and EXPEDITIOUSLY change your screen name.

20 inch or more wheels in any form is just plain getto.... I don't like big wheels. The wheels look nice in my opinion so i guess that's all that matters. Maybe if I was younger I would see things another way but thanks for everyone's opinion anyway.

who said anything about 20inches? your widths are...well...stock widths. and there's no way that those widths sit flush without 4inches of spacers or something. I also have 18's, but my fronts are 9.5 and my rears are 12. But, as long as you like it, that's all that matters.

Plenty of us are on 18's , very few are actually on homie sized ghetto dubs. If you would have searched you would have ended up with a mild setup like 8.5 +20 front and 9.5 +20 rear rolling on 245/40 front and 275/40 rear. That would be a very standard Z combo.

Sorry buddy, don´t like them I will go with19s with a decent lip at least, craiglist is your friend some times, you can get better wheels for a reasonable price to star, sell those to a happy honda owner 
, or try to lower it a bit and see what happens my two cents here, Edit yeahhh definitely lower it that will help a lot they dont look right because of the big gap

Well I took some of you guys advise and put a set of 25mm spacers on the rear wheels. Looks pretty good but does stick out just a hair. I also only have about 1 inch between the tires and the fender, hope they dont scrape. The front wheels are pretty flush, maybe a set of 5mm spacers will fit, but no more. I will try a set of 5mm in the front to even things out. I will post up some pics when I get a chance.

There's no such thing as "pretty flush". It either is or isn't. And if you have about an inch in between the tire and lip, you'd have to do something spectacular to get them to even touch, let alone rub and/or scrape. AAAAAAAAND, again, based on your offsets and widths, you're not in danger of any of that happening. Not to mention your car is ridiculously high.
But again, as long as you like it, that's all that matters.
