Will I have tire rub on a 97 civic coupe with these wheel dimensions? Oh btw, the offset is a +40. The car is lowered with Neuspeed sports and Knoi yellows. Thanks in advanced.

hmm ... think offset should be +42? thats what it is in 92-95's..

Or if you have a stereo that could do it too.. thats what did it to mine, 200lbs on the rear axle = tire rub... so i pounded out the wheel wells.

well maybe someone knows the exact offset for your year, and im to lazy to look it up :)
