Can you imagine the cost to fix/replace those if you hit a pothole? I bet those rims are weak as hell.

No, they make 30" low pro tires now (recently, within the last 6-8 months). That's not fake at all.
The lips is determined by the offset you need. Honda have a high offset (~+40mm) so you lose the lip, unless you have a custom fabbed widebody kit put on, then you could make that lips pretty big.
And... I'll have to start a collection of Honda's with rims.... hmmm. Will HAF pay me 20 cents per KB used on my hard drive?

Well I still had the page open from trying to figure out what those rims were... I know Ang loves TSW wheels so I looked there first and I was right.
They have 8th gen Accord with big lips on them... your best bet is to find a wheel where the hub of it is at the correct offset (+42mm), but the spokes curve back to the center of the rim, which would make a big lip, but the center would be out towards the edge of the lip.
