Mine is set up as below and works very well (others who have autocrossed mine have also agreed on this)

17X9 +63 TR motorosports
255's all the way around
Lowered approx one inch
Front fenders rolled
800 Lb/in springs up front and 650 in the rear
-2.4 degrees camber
Moddiction front bar

I have no rubbing at all. If you ran less camber or softer springs it may rub, but you are lowering less than me so my initial response would be you likely would not rub if you roll the front fenders. I only have stock and my current setup as a gauge.

Buddy club n+ or something else? Not that I don't mind changing things up, but if something works then it works. Would rather buy something that everyone agrees is a quality item than experiment with a bunch of products that may or may not satisfy me.

Buddy Club N+ Spec Coilovers
Basic Fender Roll- Required for my setup.
SSR Type C RS, 17x8+48 front, 17x9+55 rear
Dunlop Direzza ZII * (Star Specs) 225/40/17 f 255/40/17 r
Since raised car 1/2" from photo to avoid all rubbing and make it into driveway without scraping OEM exhaust tips still retaining a small enough fender gap for my liking. Even at that height, most if not all rubbing was from rear at the tab.
