17'' wheels for my 97 civic coupe

[V-TEC_BABY]

Hi guys,

Im new to the whole ricing up my car thing, so i wanted to know some thing about fitting rims.

I just bought 17's off a friend. He had them on a civic too.
He told me that when he turns left or right the front wheels rub on some thing.

Im worried this will happen to me..
Any suggestions?

depends if your going as low as he did?

He didnt go low at all..

you can always take out hte plastic guard on your front wheel archs. or find out where it rubs and cut that bit out.

This will probably only happen if you have a full load in your car or are travelling around the corner too fast, as long as you're running at stock height. If you lower your car you will probably encounter mor rubbing issues on just minor turns and small loads so will have to get your guards rolled.

depend on tyre width, wheel offset etc as well.
