Wheel=18x7.5 Offset=38mm Tires=(1st set)215/40r18 now 225/40/r18 Lowered, Eibach Sportlines
Rubbed with the 215's in the rear. Had the fenders rolled and took care of it. Put the 225's on, it would rub if I cornered real hard. Got the Rear Upper and Lower strut bars and haven't heard it rub at all since I've installed them. Guess the bars stopped the body from twisting enough to rub on the tires

225/35/ZR19 NT555's - 5 inch drop - front tires rubbed on the top front fenderwell screws (the ones that hold the plastic to the metal fenderwells) so i took the screws out. when i was lowered 2" on 225/40/18s the rear fenders rubbed, i had them cut. now, lowered 4" in the rear with the 19s and still doesnt rub. the front also rubbed on the inside of the fenderwell (the back side of it next to the motor) dont ask me why it rubbed here, i guess the wheels turn-in was just that sharp, but it rubbed all the dirt off and im showing metal there about 3 inches in area. thats all that scrubbed in front, but this was with about 3 degrees of negative camber, which is being corrected as we speak. i hope i can get it back to zero without them having to raise it back to 4"

225 / 40 / 18 Nitto 555's 18X8 Rims off set...????? Sportline Springs with Tokico Shocks and a Camber kit.
Only rubs on the rear passenger side, but not until I make a hard left turn. But when someone is in the passenger seat it rubs when ever I make a left turn. But the big box with two 10's in my trunk probably helps with that:-)

Hmmm.. of thos ewho listen offset you all listed 38mm.
my wheels are 40mm offset... once I put them on. I think I'm going to run 215/45ZR-17s so once I get the cash for these I'll let you know how they do with the little extra room. We'll see.
