IMO you prolly shouldn't have 17's on a 95 but hey thats ur choice. it might rub on hard turns. you might want to look into a adj coilover kit such as GC (ground control) jdmhondaparts.com you can get ur low riding height for shows, a mid riding height for daily driving, and a normal height for winter. thats just my opinion though

might not be stiff enough to prevent a lot of susp travel.. and with your big rim s it might make a lot of rubbing occur...

pretty nice setup tho

my friend recently bought primax 17x7 rims for his 95 civic and they rubbed like hell. his car isnt lowered. do your rims rub at all. he had a 45 profile tire though. if your gonna do it then you should get a low profile tire. i have friends who have those on their cars but they have 15's and it looks awesome. if you get it i hope it works out.
