215/45/17 tires on 17x7 +40MM offset

hello people.. ive done a search and nothing has really answered my question.. i was woundering what is the correct offset if i do plan to mount 215/45/17 tires onto my wheels. I've emailed two people on this site and they stated they didnt have any rubbing problems on their lowered civic. so my next concern is the offset... for those who have 215/40/18 tires... what are your offsets??? for those who have 215/45/17 tires.. what are your offsets as well.. thank you for yout times....Text

40-45mm offset you should be safe but 40-42mm is better... also if your looking for any more tech questions you can go to our site and email us...

The fronts rub on the outside, against the inner fender.
