I have 94 civic ex and i wanted to put either some 18" konig's or tenzo's and was planning to drop the car between 1.5" to 2.25" inches. Would they rub on anything or would i have to do a few things before i put them on

Depends on the offset of the rim and how wide they are...

The rims need a 43-45mm offset. you also cannot go any wider that 215.

dont lie to tha kid- YES!- they will rub.. tha only thing that wont rub is 18x7's w/ like a 43-45mm offset...

But almost all 18z are 18x7.5 ~ - a 1.5" drop might be okay.. but u'll get rubbing when u turn.. or if u drive harsh.. if u go 2" or lower u will deff get rub... No doubt - & if your thinking of having multiple peeps in your car.. then your deff goin to rub! - the people who dont rub.. tha only real reason for that - is that their Camber is off... soo their wheels are like //---\\ -- it might jsut be soo slight that its not noticable-- & the rims is just missing tha fender lip.. but if u care about tha way your car looks- & u dont want that sagging look- then u would do a camber kid.. & guess what-- theres your buddy Mr. RUB! -- well u can always do a real simple trick.. get a nice booming system & wheneva u hear tha rub- JUST crank your system alil bit louder & no rub.. or @ least No RUbbing SOUND!

have fun-- i gotta got 2 tha titty bar!
