well, prolly not if you're cambered in, but if your wheels have or are soon to been on a SPC camber kit or so, youll need it! i mean, to save money on tires, so you can get better ones thatll last you, not some crappy Nankang or Sumitomo, but got the roll and the Camber kit, itll save you some tires!

A little late to the party but I may as well throw my 2 centavos, right? I'm on 18" rims, 40 offset, with 215/35/18 tires, and I'm lowered a good amount on Megan coilovers (check the sig) with tons of room to go even lower. Currently I don't rub at all, even on big bumps, and can turn the steering wheel all the way to either side. Last year I was on 215/35/19 (40-ish offset, I don't remember exactly) and was even lower, still no rubbing and could lock the steering wheel both ways with no contact. There's plenty of room in those wheelwells, even in the rear, as long as you pay attention to tire size and offset.
