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.
