Unless you've got a body kit(at least a lip) AND some lowering springs/coilovers, 17's look too big. I'd say go for 16's. Also, from what I remember, 5zigen's are really heavy (like most 17's are). I'm not sure how much you're spending, but there are some nice Rota's (yeah, yeah, I know--call me a fanboy, I don't care ) for pretty cheap. Also, for those rims, you'd be better off with 215's, but with the rims as wide as that, you might have some rubbing issues. Good luck, and also, try reading on the tire/wheel forums.

 

i got the racing eibach going to put on it.if i lower the vehicle ,it may be not right,so i will try to install the rims,than i will lower my car,i was waiting for the new tires,then i will find out.......hope it will work,if i put 215/40/17,is it too wide
i was thinking to buy 205/40/r17 ,because 215>205, i need help,

usually what is the offset will fit on acura integra??43 ,40,38.....
5zigen is light,not that heave at all
i don't have the bodykit on it yet......i need to wait for it....

 

I'm not sure about the 7.5, but I had a 17x7 with a 40+ offset and I had no issues. I was on eibach prokits, though. I think you will definately have issues with rubbing with eibach race springs and those rims. Like I said, you'd probably should look into getting another set of rims--pref. a 17x7 40+

 

they are very heavy...at least 20lbs each. didnt weigh it. had a set of 17 gm with polish lip b4 the car got stolen.

 

i sent an email to 5zigen,they told me,it will be no problem at all,i will try and sent the email for yours,thanks everybody
