front camber doesnt get too bad unless you slam it, which you wont be able to do with .........18" rims......... i'd just get a set of lowering springs if thats all you want to do.

some manufacturers makes 18 x 7 inch wheels that are made to fit civics easy. Also consider the right offset (43mm-45mm), gutting out your front fender plastic liners, shorter lca, and front and rear camber kits

Re: questions about camber kit and the like (JDM PRO)
Actually, i wont be able to gut our the fender liners because i was
missing one on the drivers side and my entire headlamp assembly was
soked with rain water (and still is
) and would never dry up. SO i just
installed a fender liner there for protection.
So with the fedner liners it will be hard to drop ym car like 1-2 inches?
I always heard camber kits let u drop your car with big rims ... dunno

tein has a spring kit out now for about $130 and drops it 1.6" in front and 1.4" in the rear. those should work w/ your 18's. just watch the tire width.

Re: questions about camber kit and the like (2ndchancehonda)
i know but its bling and my car is slow until
i get my turbo so i figure ill keep em on until them.
Also i believe mine are 18x7.5 and i noticed that the wheels
end right where the fender ends (the fender is not in front of the
wheels if it were dropped) so i dunno how much ill be able to drop.
let me know of a hosting site and ill post a pic.
