Can this be done w/o rubbing or is it too much rubber?

If so, what are you dropped on?

coilovers or springs? they might fit but having bigger overall diameter will give you false reading on your odo and speedometer

I've done 245/40R18's on progress springs. It depends on the width and offset of the wheels you're running.

I am curious that if 225/45/18 can't fit with TRD lower spring w/o rubbing, how about 215/45/18?

That would be a better size then the 225.45.18 but it still might be a hair tall

Josh, those are the same. Lol. Or are you just saying that you're going to stay with the same tire size?
