Default 225/50/16 hankooks on coilovers on a dc to big?

I found a pretty good deal on these size tires thats why I'd like to go with them. I know they will rub lowered on regular lowering springs but what about on coilovers with about 6kplus coilovers?

They are MUCH too big and they will rub. (Diameter is over 6 percent more than stock, a full inch and a half - that's HUGE!) Stick with either 205/45-16 or 215/45-16 for your Integra.

If you're looking for a good deal, right now the Tire Rack has the Avon Tech M500 in 205/45-16 on closeout for $59 apiece. That's an awesome deal. This tire is even better than highly-regarded "bang for the buck" tires like the Kumho SPT and Yokohama ES100. It's usually more expensive but this deal is less than either of those tires ($77 and $85).

I was just looking into them since I found the kooks for 130 for that size. an inch and a half is a huge difference though...
