18 x 7.5 help
I just picked up a set of ADR M Sport 18 x 7.5 wheels.
First of all which rubber should I run with these. I have been searching and it seems 225/40/18 will rub.
The place I bought the wheels said I would have "absolutely" no rubbing issues with these even if I lowered. I have a friend that can get me a set of Falken 451 for a really great price.
AM I GOING to rub...? This is very important to me as I can still return these wheels

same respect.. you got control arms? if u rub, you can get some more negative camber to eliminate that problem

I have a 43 offset (just checked)
Here is my situation:
Got the wheels and am about to order rubber. I just picked up my H Sport control arms, camber plates and rear sway bar. I also have coilovers.
I want to lower the car and not have to worry about rub. I also would like to put a body kit on it (orciari) possibly before spring.
I was speaking with a few different people today and the majority have mentioned with lowering and the 7.5 width I will rub 100%. I would rather downsize the wheel and deal with trying to fix a rubbing issue.
