Can 16x7 Slips with 205/45/16 Azenis clear a 96-00 civic coupe?
EDIT: Title should read "215/45/16 Azenis". Sorry. 
I see Integras with 215/45/16 Azenis all the time, but never see anything larger than 205/45/16 on Civics.
Is it possible? Do I need to buy spacers? Roll the fenders? What would it take, or should I skip on this opportunity to buy 16x7 Slips with 215/45/16 Azenis?

I dont have personal experiance, but a friend of mine ran those with a 1.5" drop on a 96 hatch and it rubbed pretty bad around turns, he was also using falken azenis.

I've got 16x7 inch slips with 205/45's. And im about 3 inchs down. Only rubs sometimes. But I also dont have a camber kit yet. Got pics of it on a coupe if you want to see.

Probably going to get it repainted, some 15's,si lip,jdm sidemarkers and finally mini me it and put my greddy kit on it.
How do you like yours? Im kind of unsure about putting the kit on right now sense I might be getting in to the airforce and im scared of driving from Tennessee to the very west side of texas with it turboed.

Says the guy with the EG hatchback...way to stand out.
Who the **** cares what's popular? It's about what I like, I'm not building my car for you.

rubbing doesnt have **** to do with camber when you are at most -3 degrees.
you are rubbing because of wheel width.
a 205 azenis is similar to a 215 in other tires. they are wide as hell. and yes, you can run 215/45 r 16s on a 16x7, but like other have said, at full wheel turn you will rub a bit.
