I have these rims and do experience minimal rubbing in the rear going fast over large road imperfections and dips It is easy enough to tuck the tires in the rear wheel well with the right amount of camber adjustment, however you will wear your tires quicker.As with some other lowered cars the back end will predictably kick out from underneath under full throttle .I like that..I have a supercharger and the 9.5" rims put alot more rubber on the road.I do not drive fast on rough roads so I cannot comment about that.I do not have any problems as far as I am concerned compared to simular issues I have read about with other simular sized wheels.I have 18" rims with Yokohoma AVS ES 1oo's mounted on them.A better tire would give better grip from what I hear.I am happy with this set up.I have Eibach springs.I was told that these rims were made essentially only for our Honda's.I think they did a good job of it.

I have lm's with a 1.5 inch drop..no major issues. go for it. Expect to change tires every 10000 if you are running -1.8 neg camber or more.
