18x8 47mm Offset w/ Tein H-tech springs and tabs cut

Will these wheels fit on my 02 type-s with h-tech springs 1.5/1" drop.

http://www.ebay.com/itm/Drag-Wheels-...0bd92c&vxp=mtr

They are Drag DR-34s

they are 47mm offset, and 18x8, also i want to stretch the tire a tad so what tire size would be good for this wheel if it would fit??

I had TSW Nardo rims 17" wrapped in 225 50 17, tires rubbed a lot. Off set was no good. Rims popped out too far. I can't remember the offset though which would probably help you more but I'll look into it and let you know. I now have the 2010 accord 18" coupe rims, multiple spokes wrapped in 235 45 18's, no rubbing. Offset is very important.

Very similar drop to your set up, TEIN springs with Tokico shocks, I think about 1.2" drop or so. Been a few years, don't remember

You will be fine with that offset. Especially since you plan on stretched tire.

Are you guy positive? because i dont want to buy $600 wheels and they rub, I mean they can not rub at all, even with three fatties in the back.

Ideally, would my offset need to be larger or smaller? Im still confused on which direction the offset goes. Drag also makes the dr 19s that seem like a good fit too. anyone else have any experience with DRAG wheels please let me know
