HELP offset info needed!
Someone please help me. I sound dum but I need a little info before I start on this. I have a 94 accord and its lowered 1 inch. I would like to get some offset going (negitive I think) and I'm wondering what nessarry suspension parts and mods ill need to do this tie right way. I'm worried if I do negative offset my tire will rub on the control arm. Do they make rims for offset. Will I need camber kit? What rims and tires would do the job? I'm ridin on 17's right now

And also would I need to roll these fenders? I like the looks on some xxr 002's or maybe some konig candys. I would like sorta a wide rim. But I want it to look flush and clean as possible

Stock wheels are probably 45mm offset already. If you go to zero offset that puts your tire centerline 45mm further out (negative offset even further out) so you gotta worry about rubbing on fenders not rubbing on control arms.

i think its called zero offset. its where the top of the wheele tilts inward towards the body of the car. i sound stupid but the look of it is awsome. what parts would i need? like adjustable camber kits

Offset is usally the "spacing" of the wheel center to the hub. It sounds like you are looking for "camber". Now with that, the camber setting you are wanting, " top of the wheel tilts inward", just know that you will eat the inner edge of the tire.

Yeah, that's called CAMBER and you need a camber kit.
Positive camber looks like this: \--/
Negative camber looks like this: /--\
Zero camber has the wheels just straight up.

thank you this really helped. if i wanted some major camber would i buy adjustable camber arms? from what i see, the camber kit looks like its used for tweaking the camber not majorly tilting the wheele.

Not sure what you mean? "get the rim wo stick out"
If you go too far from stock, you WILL have to worry about wheel & tire rubbing on stuff. There's only so much space and if you get radical you have to be prepared to do some work like that.
