Not sure yet if this is going to work, as my car is in the shop as we speak, but I am having Koni adjustables, with Ground Control adjustable coil over springs installed. I went this route because the height can be stock, or lower if you wish. I have calculated that a fender roll will be necessary, but I am running 265 in the rear, you may be fine with 255. One downside to rolling the fender, you can't roll all of it. The place where the rear bumber meets the feder is reinforced, and will not bend.

Fender lip roll and negative camber will usually take care of any rubbing. The 255/35R18 is the best size for your rear.
