Hi, I have a 2002 Civic LX Coupe. I'm planning on installing 18 x 7.5 rims
(45 offset) with 215/40/18 tires. I was also planning on installing an Eibach Pro-kit ( 1" drop F&R) Do you think I'll have any rubbing issues?

Thanks In Advance

Well I bought my civic w/ 18's & stock suspension. What junk.....anything w/ an 18 inch wheel is gonna have such a low profile it will ride like a tank. Not to mention + whatever the suspension stiffens up!

Biggest I would run is a 16inch light weight wheel......I have 16's work emotion replica's and they fit perfect lowered.

Remember you have a civic w/ no torque. You need to save all the weight you can...especially in the wheels

I have 215/35/18 and was rubbing until I got the alignment so I figure a 40 series tire will probably rub permanently. But some people are saying no so maybe not.
But you'll need 35/18 in order to keep your speedometer and odometer the same.
