Question Help with tire size

Hey,

I just had my wheels refinshed and I like to get some recomendation on tire sizes. My Mazdaspeed wheels are 17 by 8 with a +35, and the rears are 17 by 9 with a +34 offset. The tires that I orded are the Kumho MX 235/45-17 and 255/40-17s.

I'm having problem with the fronts tires rubbing against the fender liner bolts and the fender itself. I tried rolling the fenders, but it still rubs when I go over a dip or speed bump.

My current suspension set up are Eibach pro with Koni yellow. Would a 225/45-17 work without rubbing?

Thanks, Jay
