Question Would 14" Acura Integra rims fit?

I'm considering buying a set of winter tires mounted on 1992/1993 Acura Integra rims (wheels are 14x5.5 and tires are 195/60/14). I don't know what the offset of the Acura rims are. Would this wheel/tire combination fit my 2007 Fit? The rims look similar to these ones in the picture:

The 92/93 Integra and the Fit both have the same bolt pattern and general offset of 35-42. So they will be perfectly fine as Wanderer said.

I've dug up this old post because I too am thinking of purchasing Acura Integra 14" 5 spoke mags. I'm actually purchasing a used 2007 GD Fit Sport with the stock rims. The seller is including winter tires but for an extra 200$ he will include a set of acura rims (pictured below) he previously used on the car as winter rims. I find the price on the high side but it saves me the trouble of having to hunt down 14" winter rims.

I have 2 questions:
-the five spokes seem to be very spaced. Does this mean there would be a greater risk of snow and salt getting to the callipers and rotors and possibly causing rust faster than it would with steelies
-I've recently learned about offset (but don't fully understand the concept!). These rims were on the car before so they do fit but do they have an appropriate offset for winter driving?

Thanks in advance for your suggestions!

as long as they don't rub, you'll be just fine.

Good to know! I wasn't sure if the calipers would clear the inside of the rim.

It really won't matter if you get snow on the calipers or rotors. I have the exact rims you're asking about with winter tires. I have driven them on the Fit for the last 3 years and I have never had a problem.

If you slide off the road and pack the snow inside the rim, you'll notice it when you begin driving again as it'll throw the balance of the wheel off. Besides that, no problems with snow getting in there. normal driving through even heavy snow won't allow the snow to get jam packed in there. (Slid off the road in my Altima and had this occur). cleaning out the snow with the handle of the ice scraper solved the problem.

Thanks for the input! I'll pay the extra 200 and buy these rims + studded tires for the GD Fit sport I'm buying.
