I currently run hotchkis springs w/225/40R18, I have no issues what so ever. People always ask me if they rub, seeing it in person, I completely understand why they inquire; there is but a gap the size of a finger or two. Good Luck!!

The drop is aggressive but not slammed. You should be ok. Stick with a 7.5" width and no smaller than a +35 offset and you should have no problems.

Make sure you get struts and shocks too.
