Default How much can I lower my 5th gen?

I have 18" rims on my accord, 225-40-18, and I want to lower my 5th gen coupe. I would like to get Eibach springs and Koni Yellows. Should I get the pro-kit or the sport lines, I don't want any chance of rubbing, but with the sportlines, I am a little nervous about rubbing. I don't know which to get can you recommend which ones will give me the best looking or lowest drop without the rub? Thanks!

It shouldn't rub with the sportlines. It will actually sit perfect, Right above the tire. I had 215/35/19 with a lower drop than the sportlines with no rubbing.

I was just ******* around If you don't want to lose drivability, don't slam it. A good sport kit or even a race kit will have you sittin' nice
