Default 225/40 18 on a CD5?

i ordered new wheels and tires but i dont know if the 225/40s will fit w/out spacers. i really dont want to send them back and wait 2 weeks for a new set cuz its all finally coming together. any one know if this will be a problem?

I use 215/45/17s and it doesn't rub at all with my drop. I don't think 225/40/18 will be a problem. What is the offset of your wheels?

they will fit fine, that is the perfect size tire for 18s, good job just make sure you dont drop it too low , i was told you shouldnt use coilovers with 18s because they knock up against the wheel well, my friend with a 1994 accord ex sedan says to use springs, but he has the same wheel/tire size and it looks HAWT!, good luck!
