Yea 205/45/17 will be no problem on 7 in wheels. 205/45 will be a little lower profile than 215/45 though so I'm not sure how it would look like.

The Civic is FWD and the FR-S is RWD so it will weed out some of the bad drivers who aren't suited to drive a RWD sports car. I say this because of the countless S2000s I see totaled on S2KI.
