Hey all, I am new to this board but not new to Honda's. Recently aquired a 99 Coupe and am in the process of modifying. So far I have the koni/GC set up and am now looking at wheels/tires.

Has anyone run these wheels before? I plan on running the 17X7 (or 7.5) with the Nexen 215/50/17. I am lowering but not slamming. This is my work commuter so it see's all types of driving.
The description of the wheel states HPO offset (high positive offset) which should keep me away from tire rub. I am going with the 215/50 instead of other lower profile tires for 2 reasons;
- more sidewall to fill fender gap
- more sidewall flex for interstate driving ( I am older and cannot lose anymore fillings as with my previous lowered vehicles)
Any advice or helpful hints from experience would be appreciated
