some have had bad experiences about this company suggesting and sending out wheels without the right offset so rubbing can be a problem. the issue is that the offset needs to be high enough so that when you are lowered, you'll have the least amount of rubbing (if any at all). do you know what offset you are getting? from a quick check on the net, one site said the 17x7.5 1-pc wheel for the 5x114.3mm bolt pattern only comes in one offset, that is to say +48mm so if you got this, you are good to go. another site said it also comes in a +43mm offset which would be on the low side.
if you have a tl-s, i also think 225/45 would have been close to the stock rolling diameter and be a better fit for the 7.5" width. 235 would be even closer to stock but you definitely need to keep an eye on the offset before you go this wide. why would you go for a lower profile and keep the same width (when compared to stock)...that should have tipped you off that the this tire size will be smaller and therefore, you speedo reading and mileage will be off. but if you have a tl-p, then that is a different story...
