The standard 6.5Jx16 wheel is +46, IIRC (it'll be printed on the inside of one of the spokes of the wheel). I have Evo VII 8Jx17 wheels with +38 offset that fit with no problems. The lower the offset number, the more the wheel sits out.

nice....

My vr4 is pre-facelift and does not sport the bulging trim around the arches.
As I understand, it be illegal to have the wheels protruding from the arch.
Think I will get away with it or not? :$

Mmm, the rears would probably be OK but I don't think you'd be happy with the fronts. The fronts are just at the limit of acceptability for me. These are 8" wide wheels +38 offset with 235s, you may be better with 7½s or 7s with 225s and a slightly higher offset (nearer the OEM +46) which would bring the outer edge of the wheel inward.
