Default Wheel size question

Alright so I am running stock ap1 wheels on the S now, but a friend of mine was going to sell me his sparco NSII to me for a real good price. The size is 16x8 so I know the will fit but my question is with stock suspension would it look goofy, ricerish, or just plain stupid? I have been searching for the last few hours but everyone else seems to be dumped while I am not on that level. opinions are appreciated good and bad
EDIT:I would do a test fit but the wheels currently don't have and tires

What are the offsets on the wheels? As long as they are similar to stock and not sticking way out it shouldn't look to bad. Personally I would just save my money and buy some 17's because tire choices and widths are much better.

The offsets are 22 and 18, and I'm guessing 17's look alright or better on stock suspension?

Lol are you serious? So you clearly haven't read the fitment guide if you did this wouldn't even be a question Those will look terrible. Think of every crappy geo with the stupid Dayton's sitting 6 inches outside of the fenders. That is how this is going to look. So no they dont fit. Don't buy them. 17's are better from a performance and looks standpoint. There are wider tire choices for them. But seriously read the fitment guide and learn what actually fits on these cars. It's not a civic.
