Default Need help 205/55/R16 is rubbing 1997 civic

Hi I need help please, I have just installed 205/55/R16 on my honda civic 1997 and its rubbing on small bumps, it has no problem with turns but only I believe the issue is with height as its only 2 fingers difference there.. the dealer said I am not sure why its happening since this size works fine with 97 civic... What should I do, I need help please.. should I lift the car an inch or more ??? I don't want to change them since I am loving the tries and the look of the car.. and I also got them at a very responsible price.. HELP HELP PLEASE

The car is likely too low. Raise it up an inch or so.

Also, you posted at 3AM for most users. Everyone is asleep at that time, lol.

What is your car lowered on and how much of a drop have you allowed for at this time?

What is the offset on your wheels?
