I have 17 X 7.5 in wheels with 40 mm offset and 205/40 series tires on my 1995 civic coupe. I am gonna be getting H & R sport (1.7" drop) springs and KYB AGX adjustables for the shock setup. Do you think it will rub? and does anyone else have any ideas for me. thanks.
i am going to be using this as a daily driver, wont see the track or strip unfortunately. strictly street

 

i have a 1.8 drop by eibach, stock shocks and 17x7 205/40s. i rub around tight corners and definately when braking and turning at the same time. 00' civic 4dr. i think you will rub worse than i do, i'm looking for smaller wheels already.

 

I think that you should be fine. Especially with the new struts. I had my civic on 17X7 Enkie RS6's and ground control coilovers...i think i had it dropped a little over 1.6 in the front and like 1.7-2 in the rear and i only rubbed when i would hit a corner really hard or hit a corner that had a dip in it. Other than that everything was kosher!
