I have them and love them...
Some people hate on the H&R's because the dampening isn't adjustable, but honestly that's one of the benefits in my book. Nothing to play with constantly. The ride is nice, compliant and mellow on the highway. I often have 2 or 3 other people in the car and almost everyone comments on how good the car rides.
Part of the reason is because H&R uses progressive spring rates on their coilovers. So while you're just cruising around you're riding on the softer part, but when you push it, the stiffer rate is there. Add H-Sport sways and it's perfect.

hmmm, I run 235/35 Nitto tires....
with 32mm offset wheels with no rubbing. I also run the rear perches only 5 turns up from the lowest possible setting.
Last year I got a set of Dunlop tires that I had to return because the same 235's were easily about 3/4 of an inch wider than my Nitto's. I couldn't even lower the car off the jack.
Basically, wheel offset is one thing...but you should REALLY do good research about tires before you choose a set. It could make all the difference.
