Hey I'm planning on getting the 18inch professor and was wondering would I rub with my eibach/koni spring/shock combo which drops around 1.25-1.5 inch? If not then what would be the best tire size for this application? Anyone with any advice, thanks.

What offsets and sizes are the Proffessors?

 

I would say you would probably have to roll the fender lips and run a little more negative camber. I would also say stay a little on the narrow side on the tires.
If I can help let me know.

 

We need offsets and sizes in order to get you a real answer. With that very minimal drop you should be fine but again we need sizes/ offsets.

 

The front is 18x8 and the rear is 18x9.5 but the offset isn't stated so hopefully Jim will chime in and let me know...because I did the wheel search with my04 as a guide and it showed that the professor would fit......

 

They are 49mm offset front and 55 mm offset rear. Just stay with the 225/40R18 and 245/35R18 and you should be fine. Like I stated before you may have to run a little more negative camber with the car being lowered. Depending on the car and the tire you choose you might have to roll the fender lip as well. I have not had anyone tell me they had to roll the fenders yet.
If I can help let me know.
