Ordering some lowering springs and tires for my FD
I'm currently running 225/40/18's in the front and 275/35/18's in the rear (all mounted on ADR M-Sports with a 35 offset)
I'm going to be lowering the car with either the Eibach's or H&R's and I'm wondering if I can go any wider with the rubber (maybe 235 or 245 up front and 285 in back)
Anyone have some prior experience and knowledge they can pass on to me?
Thanks in advance!

The front wheels are 8.5" wide and the rears are 9.5. I already rolled my fenders so I'm not concerned with rubbing the lip of the fender, I'm more concerned with the rubbing of the fender liner and other areas under the wheel wells.
Thanks,
Ian

OK...so I'll stick with the 275's on the rear and 245's up front...thanks again....by the way, do you have any preference between the Eibach or the H&R lowering springs? I'd like to have the most drop I can without having the top of the tire disappear behind the fender & supposedly the H&R's drop .25" lower than the eibach's, but if it looks clean, I'd rather have it lower, 'know?
Thanks again,
Ian
