Problems with 215/45/17?

Does anyone have 215/45/17 tires? Will I have any problems with camber or anything if I get these? My civic isn't lowered or anything so I don't think I'd have any problems, would I?

it has been covered numerous times. you shouldnt have problems even if you were to lower it a bit.

HondaLuver will become famous soon enough
what size are your rims, 17 x 7 or 17 x 7.5, because if you have 7.5 inches wide, it lowers the side wall a little bit...
