Default tire size help for my wheels (offset related)

So I am picking up a second set of wheels and here are the specs

Front - 18x7.5 +50 Offset

Rear - 18x8.5 +47 Offset

Tires for the front are 225 40 18

currently the rears are 255 35 18 .. but they will need replacing ..

I am going to put these on a ap2 with eibach springs.. .

if i run the 255 35 18 tires out back am i going to have rubbing issues ? .. i dont want to do any fender modifications so would i be better off going with a 245 35 18 or will the 255 work fine without problems


Thanks alot

I would not go wider than 245/35R18 with that offset and the car being lowered. I would go with either 215/40R18 front or 225/40R18. You may need a little negative camber but with the car being lowered it will probably have that anyway.
If I can help let me know.
