hey list,<br>I just bought a 94 Civic LX 4dr with the 1.5 SOHC.<br>Anyway, I also bought some 17x7 ASA wheels with 205-40-17 Kumhos. Im looking at Neuspeeds Race series springs. Does anyone have any experience with this setup? Will I have any problems with tire rub when turning lock to lock? <br>Any help is greatly appreciated.<br>Thanks<br>Chris

You will probably run into some problems. If I'm right the nuespeed race springs are a bigger drop than the sports springs. So, your going three sizes larger with the wheels (14 inch stocks right?)which equals 1 1/2 inches less room in the wheel gap (depending on what size the old tires were) plus the race springs which I beleive are a 2 (or is it 2 1/2?) inch drop, so we're talking a total 3 1/2 inches taken out of the wheel gap. If my maths all right then your going to be real close to fender well. You can get extremely stiff shocks and keep your fingers crossed and you'll probably also need a camber kit as well. There's also the option of rolling the fenders but I'm not sure what that involves.
