Default Wheel tire Rubbing question

First off stock height 94 civic hatchback si.
Was and still have slip streams 15x6.5. Tires 205-50-15 neo-gen
Picked up a set of enkie rpf1 with Toyo proxies R1r

Well threw them on to go try them out and they rub on the rear bad.
I know my suspension is a little worn. But my question is will they rub when I lower it I'm not going super low or anything like that just to take some fender gap out. And improve my handling

Is anyone else running that tire size and amd wheel size? Lowered as well?

They rub now, and you're wondering if they'll rub when you lower it? Yes, unless you dial in a ton of negative camber, they're going to rub.

The question is with a stiff set up will it?

I have stock and it's worn out so it leans quite a bit.
I had the on a Crx of mine and didn't have any problems.

The RPF1 will not have the same specs as your Slips. I'm pretty sure the smallest made is 15x7.

Post up the specs of the RPF1's and the tires...and then we will have a better idea.

Sorry thought I had that up there. 205-50-15 Toyo proxies
Rims 15x7. Forget the offset. Plans for the car auto cross so not slamming the car
