Default 18x8 +25mm offset...will it rub?

As the title states i have a set of tenzo type m's that are 18x8 with a +25mm offset. The tires are Federal 595ss sized at 225 40r 18. My car is dropped on H-techs. I know that i saw one other person with this exact set up, and he didn't seem to mention anything about any rub. Anyone have any ideas? (fyi i've search high and low and i only found ONE person). Thanks!!

hmmmm, ok i see. Well I guess i'll put them on and see what happens....roll the fenders and add a bit of camber, but not too far outta spec. Thank you for your input.

Most likely it will rub since its a bigger diameter tire than stock and its lowered.

I am running a 18x8.5 +35 offset wheel with almost the same tire size and I am lowered on TRD springs and I rub when I turn hard and hit dips or bumps in the road.
