You will still most likely rub with springs. Get coilovers and adjust your camber only way you'll make them fit. I have skunk2 pro-c and 17x9 +25 with 215/40/17 on my civic. I hardly have any problems with rubbing. (Although a lot of camber in the rear).

I'm very glad I spent the money on a decent set, they're my favourite mod by a wide margin.

If you don't feel comfortable spending the money right now (I space out my car purchases too), then I'm pretty confident the problem could be resolved with a relatively minor fender roll at the fraction of the price of coilovers.
Didn't you just buy a scooter cuz you had no car? (not being a dick, legit question).

Nope, I believe you're thinking of Majin.
