Default wheel rub

Any body have wheel rubs on a lowered trans am with 275/40/18 on all four corners with 9 1/2 rims? or do I have to go to 35's instead of 40's.

35's would be ideal, i am running 295/35/18's on all 4 corners and it doesn't rub too bad in the front, just the plastic fender liners which i don't care about

the 35 series also keeps your overall tire height close to factory so it wont throw off your speedo or TCS/ABS (if you have those) or anything like that.

I'll also add that i am lowered 2+ inches on coilovers with the 295's so if you are on just lowering springs i doubt you'll have any rubbing with the 275/35's
