Default Neuspeed sports w/ 17'' rims?

I currently have a 99 civic...and i was wondering if the front wheel will rub my fender when making a turn or a U-TURN with the Neuspeed sport springs? They are 1.75" drop in the front and the rims are 17's Tire series 205/40. I would appreciate it if you guys could help me out here. Thanks.

You should be fine with that tire size. The drop isn't too much, and your tire size is standard. You won't know for sure though, until you try it. Every tire will have a different profile, and some will fit easier than others.

My car was very very low (-3"), and I rubbed with BFG Euro TAs, but now I have Dunlop FM-109s and they have never ever rubbed once (both brands were 205/40/16)...
