18x8 Axis Penta

I finally decided on the set of wheels i am going to buy.

18x8 AXIS Penta
5x114.3
+40 Offset
3" Lip



Now i have a quick question. I am planning on dropping my car with the Eibach Pro Series Springs.

Eibach Pro gives a drop of 1.2 Front, 0.8 Rear

I am planning on a 235/40R18 tire.

Will this rub at all with the drop?

I tried to buy these rims and they told me that when you go to lock they will rub with the tires they were going to sell me.

the x8 is too wide i guess
