18s are too big for your car. WTF is a "race drop"? And, yes. You will have problems.

You can have a 1.5 inch drop with no problems. If you go lower you will blow out your stock shocks and then you will really be rubbing

you'll be fine with 18's. mine is lowered 31/2 inches with 18's and it is fine. just get a 40 mm off set on the wheels

You can put 18s on your car and if they have an offset you will be fine but don't go lower than the race springs 2 inches unless you put coilovers.

the height of the rim will not affect diddley squat.. unless it's a 12" rim with 215s..then the sidewall would rub...If you wanna skal the car..the tallest rims will be less likely to run as the sidewalls have less lateral play
