I have a 98 accord ex sedan w/ 18" katana VR-6 w/ P225-40R18's.
Just a word of advice: I have a 01 and I can't lower the rear because my 225-40r18's scrub when I hit a small bump

Your problem is the offset of the wheels, not the wheel or tire size. You can probably eliminate some rubbing if you trim some of the bumper tab, and if it still rubs consider rolling the fender.

This is why you do a drop first, then buy wheels that fit the car (ie tucking inside the fender under suspension compression).

It is hard to find the ideal offset for I4 Accords, but some are definetely better than others. I've had two sets of 18x7.5s, +45 offset with 225/40, and with no camber correction they both tucked inside the fender. With a little camber correction I needed to trim some off the bumper tab, but it's fine now.
