CivicTypeR01 is an unknown quantity at this point
HondaLuver now is the offset chart for the slip streams? if it is and you do the metric to standard conversion you come out having 12.19 inches to equal just over 309mm. This means that if you have the correct chart here than you are going to have to go to the next size up. You should at least allow around a 1/2" - 1/4" of area inside the wheel also for cooling. Hope this helps you out.
Peace...
