what should i do about this??
Post a really vague thread about it on the Internet. Make sure to leave out details and pictures, and definitely don't tell us what year/model car you drive.

^^LOL that'll get the help coming a whole lot faster. It would help to see pics of where it is rubbing. No one can help you if you dont help them first..and provide all the details and pics if possible.

There's another thread on this EXACT topic right above yours: https://www.hondacivicforum.com/m_519913/tm.htm
If you look at that you will see there is a lot more info needed before we can begin to help you. You can at least tell us your tire size, and take a picture of the car, we can tell you if it's lowered or not.

default to a stereotype: you're a girl so it's okay to know nothing. classic.

It's fine to know nothing as long as you're willing to learn. Mxs was being sarcastic, but he was still implicitly telling you what would help. If you still want to know, post up pics of your wheel wells with the wheels turned to the extreme right and left. That'd be a start.
