Might be buying these tonight, they are 17x7, stud pattern 4x100 and have a 40 offset, can the civic fit the offset or not?

17x7 might scrub a little at full lock depending on height.. get smaller profiles tyres if needed

Couldn't agree more - 17s just look too big for EKs IMO

Looks like polished metal to me too

7" and 40 offset should be fine. I had scrubbing at the rear when I cornered hard back when I was using 17x7 +35 and 215/40/17. So at +40 I think you'll be fine at the back for sure, roll if need be.

Front just don't dump it stupidly and you'll be right.

Shadowchrome looks awesome IMO. I hate chrome but my 17's were shadowchrome and looked great when they were cleaned.
