Just FYI, you're going to increase torque steer and partially undo all the great engineering honda did to get torque steer to a minimum. Engineering > whether the wheels are flush.

yeah already felt the torque steer just a bit

the plan was to install 20mm spacers BUT the oem lug studs hit the wheel even with a additional 5mm spacer (25mm total)..so only installed the 5mm and you can feel a hint of torque steer...also did alignment (which was already off)...the car has a lot of negative toe so toe was adjusted just a bit to extend the life of the tires

Are you running OEM wheels? Do your wheels not have the pocket/void between each lug like pictured here? Just curious why yours wont fit but others have seemed to have no issue.

They are talking about the Type R. You wont have that problem with your FK7
