Default 17X9 38mm offset fit ok?

Stock height, does a 38mm offset 17x9 clear everything ok?

That offset will be fine at stock height or even lowered with some negative camber. Go for it. By the way, what wheels are you thinking about going with? 17x8 +32 and 17x9 +38

its an s2000, not a civic. most wheels/tires setups are staggered so there is no rotating. ive got 17x9's up front and 17x10's in rear with -3.5 camber in the rear and my azenis have been on over 2 years. as long as the toe angle is in spec the tires will wear well.

Front camber on my car is within u.s. specs .8 degrees and the rears are at 2.3 degrees. I have run more agressive camber on other cars in the past and have had issues with excessive tire wear but on these settings the tires are wearing quite evenly.
