when you lower your suspension with a coilover or whtever when you see cars wityh virtually no space between the fender and tire are these usually rubbing? i would imagine no matter how stiff a spring rate extreme cornering or tight radiuos turns would caouse tire shred am i crazy, i plan to use 16 or 17 i was just curious

 

depends on what year if its 95 down dont try it 17in is plenty ive done 2 92 and a 95 on 18's they rubbed even on stock suspension but hey so i dont get bashed by some know it all thats just my opionion hope it helps..

 

**** i have coilovers and fat 5's on my 99 Si and my inner fender is gettin wore out

 

I see a couple of civics on 18's. I had my civic slammed with 17's then I wanted to see my friends c5's(18's) on my car. It was rubbing when I hit bumps but not that bad when I turned. I never did a complete u turn though

 

18's on a civic=

 

thank you all for the feedback, just one last question 17w/a coilover is this a reliable combo? i want to have the wheel well filled but what kind of ride quality does this offer, i have been in a integra droped well below 2 in and it was the worst ride imaginable my teeth are still ratteling, given this weas a homemade cuting factory springs operation i still want much differnt results.

 

17 w/coilover, is a comfortable ride in my civic. I did not have no complain about the ride. It was skunk2 coilover,ingall camber kit all around and stock struts.

 

i got 18's on my civic . u need to get new fenders to make them fit. only in the front tho.. but i also got ait ride soo...

new fenders...like what? You can get your stock ones rolled out ,but doesnt make that much of a difference. Dont plan on slamming it with 18's like you can with 17's
