Great looking pics everyone!
To the folks above, my wheels are the following (back on page 2):
Wheel Brand/Type: SSR Comp C (painted center, machined lip)
Diameter/Width: 18x8, 18x9
Offset F/R: +48/+55
Suspension Type/Brand: Espelir ASD on OEM '07 shocks
Dropped Inches: ~1.4" rear, ~1.2" front
Fender Mods: None (need UK spec alignment)
Tires: 255/35 ®, 225/40 (f), Pirelli P-Zero
I'm getting a little tiny bit of contact on the rear fenders at extreme compression. It's a 18x9 +55, running a 255/35 tire. I'm currently still on the OEM alignment spec.
Do you think since it's 5mm less positive than those OZs and 0.5" narrower than the BBS, that just a slightly more aggressive alignment (thinking like maybe the UK spec, or something right at 2" neg) will clear up the rubbing issue?
If those BBS weren't rubbing with a +55 on a 9.5" wide wheel without a fender roll, I should be able to tuck them in pretty easily with just a camber adjustment, yeah?
Thanks for any feedback!

Not all 255/35s are created equal in terms of width, but I think with camber similar to mine or more, you'd be fine.
