I've got 215/40-18 and I've never rubbed. Dropped on Goldlines. All you have to do is roll your fenders in the back, but that depends on the offset of the wheel also.

I've never rubbed in the front at all though. Not one little bit.

225/40 would probably rub with any kind of drop though.

ok guys tire size kinda doesnt matter its the offset of wheels... i can make a 20" 225/35/20 fit w/o rubbing w/ proper offset.... and ive made 8.5" wide fit too... depends on offset. and oh yeah who ever posted this... try and drop ur car 3.5" like me and then make it not rub... yeah thats the hard part.

you "can" have it fit, but its really just too wide for our front fender. just get 215/45 or 215/40
