They fit... but they will rub if you have any passengers in the car or take a nice abrupt turn.

no, the thing that got me was the girl who owned it... she's probably bigger than 3 average guys combined. made me wonder how she fit into the car.

Probably not. How far are you dropping your car?

I put the 1.7" Eibach Sportline Springs on mine. When I put the wheels, Konig 17X7" with 205/45/ZR17s, the side wall of the tire and the rear fenders where in line vertically. So I had to go to a really good body shop and have the guy pull the rear fenders out. Cost me $400 but the fenders are perfect know ripples or dimples and they are alot stronger then if I had just cut out the supports for the fenders.

Re: 17's on ef (MugenEF7)

I had 17x7 with 215/40R17 with no rubbing but the offset was 45mm which is the same as your stock wheels. Offset is the most important thing to check to determine whether your gonna rub.
