215/45/16 on a 5th gen civic?
i had my heart set on felken azenis' but the closest size to 205/40/16 is 215/45/16, could i run into rubbing problems?
i plan on wrapping them on 16" slipstreams.

I'm runing the 215/45x16" Azenis tires on 16x7.5" rims with a 1" drop and I rub everywhere on my 00 Civic Si. I know a guy runing the same tire with 16x7" rims, and dropped 2" BUT WITH A CAMBER KIT and he doesn't rub - he's also running 2 degrees camber.
So yes they will rub unless you get like a 16x7" rim and a 44mm offset and MAYBE a camber kit.

Cause the Azenis only come in 215/45x16" and 205/50x16"
Besides I used 215/40x16" on my same wheels last year and they didn't rub at all.
