Default Please HELP!

I have the Neuspeed springs coming in this weekend and think it is going to be so low that I will need new tires. I was wondering what size tires I should get with 18x7 and 18x8? I just want to make sure that I dont rub at all! PLEASE anyone help! I now wish I would have gotten springs that dont lower the car as much.

can you put 215 on the front? or 225 is the lowest? What about the back? Can you put 235 on it?

If the offset is 42 and 45 you need to stay very narrow on the tires. I would say like 215/40R18 and 225/40R18 on the rear.

I have Kumho Ecstas and was told they dont make a 215/40 series ZR rated tire. Will 225/40/18 front and 235/40/18 rear run ok? Also, fender rolling will remove all rubbing issues, right? Thanks Jim!
