Default Am I going to rub?

Thinking of picking up a set of wheels but idk if the fronts will be good or will the tires rub? They are 245/45/17 +48 offset 8" rim

Id say you would probably rub if you are lowered. also 245/40 or 45? A simple roll should be sufficient

Im running a 225/45/17, 17 x 7.5 + 50 in the front with a 1.75 inch drop. I keep my dampers set at about medium hard and when I hit pot holes I used to rub the outer wall of the tire.

The 245/45/17 tire is too tall. Just wagering a guess, but these wheels used to be on a WRX?
