i am planning to get some rims and i was wondering what kind of tire size, width of rim, and offset would i need so i wont have any rubbing issues, i know there are threads that have the same topic, but i cant seem to find someone with the same suspension setup as mine...heres my setup,

H&R Race springs - 2.0in drop
Tokico Illuminas

i was thinking about gettin 17s or maybe 18s....can you guys help me out on the width of rim, offset and tire size that i would need on either 17s or 18s so that i wont rub??? also people with H&R Race springs, can you guys post some pics who have aftermarket rims....thanks...

17s... offset at least 45mm if you can get it...(42mm is okay).. and 215/40 or 215/45

Like Aaron was saying, I have the same springs you do and have no problems with running 18's. Its all about the offset 48 degree works well. I use to have Racing Harts that come in 42 offset only for 18s and had some trouble with rubbing. I would go with a 215/35/18 tire if your roads arent that bad.
