Stock Tire fitment with drop

I have stock Fd wheels with tein s-techs. I know 245/45/16 fit on stock rims, but TEINS drop the car quiet a bit, so would it rub with teins??

I want to buy Hankook ventus rs2 in 245/45/16 all around. Im thinking that 245's in the front may be too much so should i got 225/50/16? they dont offer 235.

So overall, my question is, with a TEIN drop, can i fit 245/45/16 front and back on stock rims? THNX

Yes.

You 'might' catch the fender lip on a driveway (wheel turned and up on the driveway curb). That will just be something you'll have to see.

make things clear----- I should go ahead with 245 all around.

If it rubs going up drive ways when the wheel is turned thats ok. But if i turn the wheel on normal surfaces, and it rubs, thats not ok.
