Offset question

I just bought some Enkei ZR2 17X7 4-100 with a 40mm Offset...
I was just wondering if the offset is correct because on the sticky forum it said +45MM offset.. Will these measure fit good on my 2002 Honda civic

you can get from +37 to +44 offset...+45 is the stock offset

an offset of 43 would be ideal but that should be fine.
depending on your drop, id suggest some 205/45/17 tires

yep 45 offset is stock, but keep in mind that a stock rim is 6.5" wide and 195 tire

manthatguysfast is a glorious beacon of light

so....a lower offset...say for instance the +37 that was mentioned...will give you more room between the inside fender and rim?

The FAQ DOES NOT specify an offset number, it gives a range. See the "Standard answer" thread and read the FAQ again.
None of this really matters if you already bought the rims anyways.
