Default What fitmen am I looking at with 17x7 45 offset

Hello, I have HFP 17s on my other car, and couple years ago I put them on the s2000 and it looked pretty cool, but I didn't drive around with it. Now I'm looking at getting new wheels for the s2000, I'm wondering if I could get another set of it and run wider tires. I don't want to run crazy wide, just wanted to know if I could at least match the OEM 16s width with these HFP wheels. Also they only come in as 17x7 45 offset. There is no other size other than going up to the 18s for the same offset.

Here is a pic I took when I put them on the car to see how it was.

Widest tire I would put on a 7 inch wide wheel is a 225.
