Okay, I know you all are probably really tired of people asking about rims, and if they will fit. But, maybe you can find it in you heart help me before I spend a chunk of change on some rims.
They are Advan RGII's, from an S2000 going on my 2008 Civic.
17x7.5 +45 for the fronts. 215/44/R17.
17x8.5 +50 for the rears. 255/40/R17.
Im pretty sure I will have to run the 8.5's in the rear. But Im just slightly concerned that I may have rubbing problems. I am at stock ride height. Any advice/input?
and a picture for those visual people..

The offset is one possible problem. The center bore - the diameter of the big hole in the middle of the wheel - is another. Like the NSX, the S2000 has different center bores, front (70 mm) and rear (64 mm). When you use a wheel with a center bore that's larger than the hub, as the S2000 front wheels do, the wheels rely only on the lugs for centering and for this reason are susceptible to vibrations, even when you do all the right things when mounting them. So that's a risk too.
