225/40/18 tires...any rubbing?

I checked through the unusual tire size thread and did not find it listed. I was wondering if anybody is running these on a dropped car? Is there any rubbing?

even 215-40-18 is kinda thick.. i would try not to get them.. theres a few members here with them and they said they had no problems, dont rememebr if they had a drop tho..
i know torretto was running either 225-40 or 225-45 on groundcontrols but then he gutted the front fender wells to do this..

i would try to stay away from them if i can...

without a drop, you should be fine. with a drop, thats when your going to have problems...
to gut the front fender, just take off all the clips and screws and it should come off.
