Thumbs up Will this rub in the rear?

I am about to purchase some 17" NSX wheels (02+) and was wondering if I will run into any problems in the rear. I have a MY05 and running stock suspension (to stay in A-Stock) but I do auto-x often and drive pretty hard. I really prefer not to roll the fenders, so the question is will this setup hit in the rear?

Wheel: 17" x 9"
Offset: 56 mm

Thanks for any help!

What size tires are you going to run? It shouldn't rub on stock suspension.

Won't rub

EDIT: If you don't mind me asking, where are you getting these from? NSXPrime?

You cant run those wheels in A Stock, The wheels have to be the factory size and offset. That being said I doubt anyone would say anything at a basic level, just know going into it that they are not legal for A Stock.

I was browsing nsxprime for the longest time searching for these wheels but didn't fell like paying 1500-2000. I actually lucked out this time, I found someone that was selling his NSX with aftermarket wheels and he still had his OEM's. He sold the car and then needed to get rid of these, wa la!

These are one of my favorite wheels ever and I just happen to like the clean/oem-ish look.

I don't plan on running the nsx wheels at the auto-x, I just wanted to make it known that I run the car hard in the turns and do not want to be rubbing when I do so. It was more so to get an accurate answer about the wheels. Thanks for looking out though.
