the fit wheels will bolt up but the offset is 55mm and the 00 civic offset is 40mm thats why they are rubbing. i'd say they are hitting the brake caliper wrong offset

the fit wheels have to much a offset for your civic they might never work right. do they only make the noise on the front?

you might try some 3mm spacers up front but that still might not work imo i don't like spacers they can make the wheel wobble and break the studs

make sure when you buy new rims you get the correct size/offset.
