Default Will they rub?

If I get 18/9 on the front with Eibach Sportline, or would the Pro-kit be better?

With an 18x9 in the front it depends on what tire's your doing and backspacing on them. More details would help.I have 265/35/18's and I had no rubbing with my sportlines or my current coilover setup.

+1 depends on tire size. There's plenty of people on here running 275's on moderately lowered cars who don't rub.

+1 depends on tire size/backspace of the wheel. There's plenty of people on here running 275's on moderately lowered cars who don't rub.

What tire size are you looking to do and what style wheel are you doing? That will help a lot. I run a 285/35/18 on rear and have 18x9 all around my bs is 25mm I believe. Dan

You will prolly have rubbing issues in the back when going around turns and stuff. Do you know your bs? Also 315's are a lot more expensive of a tire, give it a sick look but I would lean towards 295 unless money isn't a real issue.

It isnt but in the long run i probably need to just go with the 295s. Less issue and less expensive.
