Default Spring question?

With about an 1 inch drop(25mm) on stock shocks? Plus 17in rims 225 front 255 in back.. do you guys have a problem with the tires rubbing ? or the stock shocks blowing out? or ever problems going up stuff without scratchin your front end?

I was thinkin about getting the spoon sports springs as a upgrade?
What do you guys think?
Wanted to get peoples reaction.

Thanks!

I know there a few guys at A&J Racing and another guy with 225/45/17 and 225/40/18's in the front with no rubbing issues with all different type tires. Then I heard Ben at A&J ran a 235 and blew out the front fenders in a corner! In the back there is an issue with 255s. There's a freind with khumo 712's 255/40/18 with the Kg/mm race springs that rub the rear quarter lip. We haven't tried rolling the lip with a bat yet. A&J Racing runs alot of lowered cars s2000 and civics. They sell spoon, Kg/mm, buddy club, etc. They have alot a experience with different tire/wheel/spring combos. It will be a good idea to call them. They are one of this sites sponsors.
