Enkei RP-F1 17x8 45mm Question

Will Enkei RP-F1 17x8 45mm offset work on an 08 LX sedan with no drop? I think the tire size will be 215-45-17. Thanks.

I am running that set up with 225/45 tires... they rub only at high speeds over big bumps... and they look damn good! (of course... mine are black too)...

definitely noticed a huge difference, but I would chalk it up to changing from stock all season michelins to bridgestone re01r's.

anyone know if tirerack has any lower offsets on these? im looking to order some 17x8 in black but it only shows 45 offset. i think im looking more for a 35 offset to push them out more
