Sorry to thread hijack.
I lowered my car a bit more the other day, my 225/40/18s rub on the front when cornering sharply, I dont want to stretch my tyres.
What size could I use to prevent this from happening?

a few options you could do BIG AL i would say stick to the original size tyre and jack it up slightly or check that all the arch liners and screwed in properly you could go a slightly lower profile [35] which might help but then the ride is a bit harder or go to a 215 width tyre but then not as much traction!
