Im sure the 20mm would look much better, Im afraid that it might rub going over speed bumps, driveway, and etc. or am i safe with 20mm?

I'd have to agree with the others.
Go for the 20mm spacers, you won't have any problems with rubbing under any circumstance
And for your info (and nghiars) the fenders on the 2nd gen sedan are rolled from the factory

15mm would be my choice. actually maybe even 20 front, 15 rear since the fronts seem to be tucked in a bit more than rear.

Used the search button and I'm bumping this thread..

I'm going to be dropped on coilovers soon and I want some spacers for my stock OEM sport 18's...

I'm thinking about going with the H&R 20mm DRM...?

I have a Sport and I'm going to be dropped slightly more than the eibach pro-kit drop on the Sport models.

Suggestions and feedback is greatly appreciated.

Thanks
