235/40/18 rubbing?

I have a set of ASA JH8 18x18.5 45mm offset i was wondering if putting 235/40/18 will rub? Lowered with TRD springs

It shouldnt rub but it depends on the brand of tire. Some rub and some don't even if they are the same size. Rolling your fenders is easy anyway. You definitely won't rub in the front.

235/40-18 tires will not have any rubbing problems with TRD springs and +45 offset wheels.

Ive seriously considered that size as well and would love to go with it but I think on DF's it will rub. The wheel I want in 18 is 8 inches wide with a 42 offset so I think it would rub for sure. IDK if getting new shocks and struts would help prevent it but coilovers might lol. On TRD springs Im sure you wont have any problems as well as NF210's. Ive had 235/45/17's w/ a 40+ that I tested out and rubbed a little bit on bumps so I feel like itd be about the same situation.
