Default 225/45/17 Will They Fit Without Rub?

Hello,

Im looking at a 225/45/17 tire for my Tenzo Passion 5 rims. This is for a 97 honda accord lx coupe. I was wondering if they will fit without rubbing. I do not plan on dropping this car with these tires cause i know you nedd a 205. But i found a great deal on these tires and was wondering if they will work. Some fill me in plEASE!

Im keeping it stock no drop on these tires. I called tire rack and they said they would rub. I got a sick deal on tenzo passion 5's and this size tires but i dont want to invest if its not going to work. I just didnt know if anyone had any experience with this size tire and rim?
