Clearance with an 18'' rim and lowered? I found a great deal on some Eibach lowering springs (its a V6, so I'm not getting the best of the best) and I was wandering if my 18'' rim, with 275/35/18's all around will clear once its lowered. My front tires rub a little already on the black fender well.

it all depends on the width of the rim, as well as the offset/backspacing, plus the overall tire height. it looks like you have the proper tire height ratio, though. if you get the proper width/offset/backspacing, they should fit just fine. check this sticky thread in the wheels & tires section

take one of the wheels off, then measure the distance from the surface where the wheel mounts to the wheel hub to the point where the tire mates with the lip of the rim.....that will be your backspacing. once you know the backspacing and the width of the rim, you can figure out your offset.
