Default Tire size on 03 Cobra wheels with 1.5 drop

First of all I'd like to say hi to everyone !..I'm new to this forum and from what I can tell this seems to be a great mustang forum full of nice folks with plenty of knowledge.. Ok so I've had a couple of nice mustangs (foxbodies) in the past and recently purchased a mint low milage 99 Cobra with full bolt ons and 03 Cobra wheels..I love the car but the wheel gap is killing me and it's got to much body roll for my liking so I ordered a set of springs through eiabach which will give me a 1.5 drop all the way around and I'm also ordering new tires all the way around. The backs I have now are 275/40/17 which I believe was the stock tire size the 03s came with and the fronts are a 245/45/17 which seems like a odd ball size so I'd like to just get 275/40s all the way around..My question is will I have any rub issues in the front with a 275/40 and a 1.5 drop ?

Thanks Z28KLR I appreciate the feedback. I just ordered the Koni adj sport shocks and struts kit as well. So hopefully it will handle alot better and not feel like a school bus.
