should be all right but you will rub the inner plastic guards occassionally though espesh when u hit some bumps.

Cos i got JIC coilovers n 17" rims but i haven't rolled in my guards on my em1

Jeezus, noobs posting noob crap - just because you didn't have to roll your guards doesnt mean everyone else doesn't.

you prob don't even have the same wheels not to mention height adjustment on the coilovers.

A lot of things contribute to wether or not it will scrub,

Height of the car.
width, and offset of the wheels.
Width and profile size of the tyres.
Camber

etc.

If you're worried it will scrub then raise the car.
