I'm running a 42mm offset and a camber kit on my 6th gen coupe, the only time I've ever had a rubbing issue was when I was carving the hills of the Dragon's Tail in the Smokey Mt.'s I'm willing to bet most owners have never tried this in a Honda Accord so I'd say with this offset you'd be safe. But I'd bet a 40mm would rub.

If I had Schmiddy's 45mm offset I might not have rubbed at all.

Personnally if I have to ever replace my rims in the future, I'd much rather have a 45-50mm offset on a 17" rim with some more sidewall for a tad more bit on some softer tires. I'd look into a set of light weight 17" at the Tirerack if it were me. I have RacingHarts and they are totally all show no go, save for the sticky meats I have.
