I currently have 17 inch rims on my 99 civic SI. I have the ride lowered 2 inches by intrax springs. They look good and fit in the wheelwell perfect. But I want to go bigger. I want to get 18's wrapped with 215/35 18 tires. Has anyone tried this? Will they fit or will they rub?

Ive seen many people run 18s on an SI with no problem just get the correct offset and you would be ok.

I just bought some 18 konig tantrums. I am just waiting fr the tires to arrive. As soon as UPS brings them to my dorr I will drive across the street to firestone and make them put them on. I'll tell you how it goes.

PS: Anyone know of any good springs that won't rub. Looking for about 1.5 inches.

i'd say the eibachs they make really good springs, i think the sportlines are the ones your looking for.

pro-kits are 1.2-1.3 drop and they can work with your stock struts. sportlines have a 1.8-1.9 drop and need some new shocks, plus a camber kit
