rubbing issues with new suspension!
Setup:
-1993 Civic EX 4dr w/ B-series swap
-KYB AGX + H&R Sports
-15" SE GSR wheels (195/55/15)
Recently just installed my new suspension. I've set the KYB's at stiffest notch. My front would rub every corner...and these are SPORTS h&r's!!
it's about a finger gap or smaller.
any ideas? what if i have H&R Race? wouldn't that be lower? do i need stiffer springs? any ideas?

i believe i would rub the fenders hard if i take corners in autox.
perhaps these h&r's are too soft. i may need stiffer springs. any recommendations? spring rates?

Re: (handa)
I have the same problem...
h&r's on koni's with 99-00 si wheels... 195-55-15
what color are your h&r's? If they are black then you have the sport, if they are red, you have the race.

Re: rubbing issues with new suspension! (handa)
i have the same setup on the same car. BUT, my tires are 195-50s, NOT 55s. You have a larger sidewall than I do. And also, did you forget the rubber stopper?
