H&R Springs -w- Tokicos

Hi, i'm getting a set of Tokicos with my FD i'm purchasing. I had H&R's on my last car and loved how they handled. My question: Are the H&R's with Tokicos a good setup?

I'm also planning on getting a set of 18x9 +49 rims in about two years. Will i have any rubbing issues with the H&R springs?

Thanks,
Clayton

H&R Sport springs with anything (Tokico, Bilstein, Koni) are awesome. They *are* somewhat stiffer than stock, however, the ride is not punishing at all.

And the wheel size and width with that offset is fine. You shouldn't have any rubbing issues if widths of the wheels aren't too wide (9.5"+ front, 10"+ rear), and the offsets of the wheels you are buying are close to stock (+50).

About the wheels: I was worried whether or not there will be caliper clearance problems. I was wondering how much space do i have to work with if i need spacers?

Thanks Speedking

Which calipers? Stock? Aftermarket?

Also, what wheels are you considering? SSR and Volk make wheels in different configurations to allow for bigger aftermarket brakes.
