Here is what I learned.
1. Front wheels rub on full lock. The rubbing occurs on the inner fender liner and at he front of the side skirt.
2. I should explore 255/35/18 tire size.
3. I could solve my problem by removing liner and trimming front side skirt.

Thats because your tires are too tall.

go with the 245 if you don't want to risk the rubbing... Mine clear in the front ok with 255 but I had to roll my back fenders to avoid rubbing.

If I am on stock suspension, running the MR struts.
I am getting ready to buy the gforce 18x9 with a 30mm offset.
What tire should I run to not have any issues? I wouldn't want to roll of bend or break or cut the fender.
Depending on the fitment, I might be inclined to lowering the car with swift sports. Would that be possible?

Thanks a lot guys
