Wheel fitment...again

I'm looking at getting a set of Gram lights and was wondering if this fitment would be too aggressive (17x9 38mm offset) on my 01 AE. Or what width and offset is advisable.

Not aggressive at all. Are you lowered? What tire size are you planning to run?

wasn't planning on lowering it yet, if I do I was looking at the Illumina/H&R combo.
