I just got a 94' ex for my new DD and it came with some 17x7 +45 icw wheels. I was going to get rid of them but have decided to keep them since they look decent and have brand new tires. It looks like there is about a 2" wheel gap; but it looks like the wheel wells will set on top of the tire if I lower it too much. I would like to get the skunk2 -~1.75" sport springs and sport shocks.

 

When you lower a Civic, the tops of the tires will lean inwards (negative camber) and should miss the fender edges, especially with +45 offset. Just make sure they don't rub anywhere on the inside.

Don't worry about camber correction. That will only make your car handle worse, be more likely to scrape the fender edges, and will make alignments cost more. Just go for an alignment after you lower the car and get the toe-in set to factory specs.

 

cool, so a ~1.75-2.00" drop should be alright?

I was going to get the skunk2 camber kit and rear lower control arms. are you saying they are not needed?
