whoa whoa. How can a 18x9 +30 rim be rubbing with a 245/40, even if the car's lowered? I've seen people run more aggressive setups than this and not rub? People have even claimed to run 265/35/18 on a 18x9.5 +28 and not rub in the front. Even authentic rgII's (i know you have svn's and not boosts), which have a slightly lower offset, can run 255 35 w/o rubbing. I wonder...
Even the silver evo with P45R's 18x9.5 +30 is running 265/35 and only claims that there is "(little rubbing)"

if you buy a 245 35 you wont rub. if you run a 245 40 you will rub on the rear with a 30 offset( only if you are lowered) minor fender rolling is need to fix this. like i said earlier, i am running the 255-35-18 on the boost 18x9 +30 lowered on coilovers and i am rubbing when i hit some good bumps.(only on the rear is rubbing) to fit a 255 or 245 40 you would want to run a 35 offset wheel.

i have heard that swifts really dont drop you to low, so with a 245-40 you should be okay. zoeb told me when i bought the wheels i might have rubbing issues on a lowered evo and he was right. just depends on how low your evo is
