I have 18x8.5" rims with 245/40 tires and I want to get the Tein H-tech springs
(front 1.2 back 0.3) or Tanabe (1.5 front 1.0 rear) and I don't want any rubbing issues. Would I be ok?

 

bump...anyone out there?!!!

 

it will work thats about what i got

 

What kind of tires do you have?

 

Sorry don't know much about your rims.

 

My wheels are 18x8.5 with 245/40/18s and they only rub when I make hard lefts ( >90 degrees) under full load. I don't have springs or coilovers though. They might rub. If you haven't bought the tires, you might go for 245/35/18s instead. This is what HyperRev suggested for 18" wheels.

 

Nitto NT55 245/40/18, I love Nittos...I went 140 mph on them, but at the time I didn't know that the front pass tire had a nail in it and it only had 12 psi in it. So after that I completely trust them. Any tire that can go 140 mph with a nail in it and not blow is dependable in my book!

 

So you have the Tein H-techs w/18 tires and you have no rubbing issues?

 

I'm not sure about the Nittos. My Kumho Ecsta MXs 245/40-18 didn't rub, but I've heard rubbing issues with BFGs and Bridgestones S-03s.
