Default Best Offset for a lowered ITR on 17s

getting myself a set of Konig Wheels 17x7 what would be a good offset to get in order to have a nice tuck with minimal rubbing using a 205/40/17 tire, lowered about 3"s.

+42,+43

But why rock some Konigs? What do they look like? What color is your car?

I think you're lost on what offset actually is...

Other than the fact that they probably weigh 23 lbs and are only 7" wide for a 17" wheel, nothing--I guess.

That and 17's really don't look good on a DC2. But that's personal preference.

But to answer the question, anything around +42 will be fine.

too much what?

lower number equals further out, you might want to learn a little more about wheel offsets.

edit:
because i'm a nice guy

and 17's on a integra is unseasonable

Boss i have a fair understanding of what offset is and i want close to a stock ITR offset and the higher the offset the closer it is to the inner wheel well i just want to know what you guys are using without problems.....all you HT guys are a bunch of know it alls quick to question peoples intelligence but you never seem to can answer simple ABC questions.....

SO FOR THOSE OF YOU WHO OWN TYPE R'S AND CHOOSE TO WEAR A 17" WHEEL, WHAT OFFSET DO YOU USE WITHOUT PROBLEMS? & WHAT'S THE HIGHEST OFFSET YOU USE !!!!!!!

Thanks to those who took the time to read, understand and anwer my simple question!!!!!!

Konig makes a sweet 19x6.5" wheel...the Konig Douchebag. Perfect for ballers such as the OP.
