if you go with stock suspension, i'm pretty sure it wont rub..
if you do lower it, even on the least of a drop, you'll rub for sure.
6.5 and 7.0 makes a big difference fyi

most-likely no. very small chance you would rub.

I'm on this exact set-up, stock suspension, and it rubs in the rear left side on highs-speed dips, and rarely in the front, but it does sometimes. keep in mind that I've already grinded down the rear bumper mounts in the wheelwells, which by the way, helps a lot coz it rubbed a lot more before that. I am considering fender rolling as the next option coz I want to get rid of the rubbing altogether, and possibly drop the car using Tanabe GF210's come springtime. also, if you do some searching, some people actually suggests that tires play an important role in this rubbing issues. just for reference, I use Nitto NeoGens. hope this helps.

hondafitted2007-

ohhh wow.. im rocking 17x7.5 and they look right. i mean 16 look great, and handle very well. but now that i keep on looking at my 17's im loving them.

the sportmax006 is what i was thinking about doing at first. but my idea was to powder coat the black mesh, and make it white with the red lip. HARD!

but now that i am slammed with zero wheel gap..the 17" advan rgs look right.
