Got 235's and wanna lower my car but worried about rubbing

[dsmdeliveryboy]

I'm on eibach prokits with gr2s in the rear and stock blown shocks in the front (PO's decision) and I only rub in the front due to the fact that my front shocks are blown, before they blew out I wasn't having any rubbing issues on 245/45/17s with 17x8 +38 offset wheels (evo 8 wheels). If you want pics let me know.

Ya let me see some pics, and thank you for your reply I appreciate it

Here's one for now, I'll take pics of the front when it stops raining. I have room to go 255's no problem in the rear it seems, I'm just going to need stiffer suspension in the front.

Damn that looks CLEAN, I really like that.

I'm running Eibach sportlines right now. I'm using 245/45/17's and i don't rub at all. My wheel is 17x8 i think I'm not really sure. If it isn't 17x8 then it's 17x7. Sorry it's been a while since I've replaced tires.

What's your offset?

What's your offset?

I honestly have no idea, I don't know how to check..

38 I believe. I'll try to get pictures of fender gap and how far they stick out.

 

[dsmdeliveryboy]

Should it say somewhere on my wheels what the offset is?

 

[juanpac0]

Inside spokes usually.

 

[dsmdeliveryboy]

Does 40 sound right? I couldn't find it on the wheels so I've been trying to research a little on the wheels.

You should be fine, especially if you run a little bit of negative camber in the rear.

Ya I was thinking I was gonna have to run some negative camber.. -2 more than likely.
