Yes sir. I would recommend to get the car re-aligned once the new springs are fully settled.

I was concerned that the rears would have rubbing issues so i was planning to get 245/40 for the rears, just to be certain i would have no issues. I will be running Kumho ECSTA Supra 712 on all 4. Ill stick with 255/40 for the rears. I have been told that either my rears or fronts would or may have problems by lowering my car an inch. I cant really get a solid answer, just i think answers. Ill see how it turns out.

I have these Stech springs....they're on the soft side(compare to kg/mm race), just a little stiffer than the stock springs. I'm running Work S1 18x8 +56 front with 225/40-18 and 18x9.5 +62 with 255/35-18 Yoko ES100 and i have no rubbing issue. Be sure to get an alignment cause your camber and toe will be out of spec.
