Question Will I rub?

So I'm probably going to lower my car on Tein S-Tech this weekend. Drop is about 2" front and 1.2" rear.

My tires are 225/40/18 and my rims are 18x7.5 offset +38.

Do you guys think I'll rub?

Hello, need to know if my Lancer GTS 2011 will be okay if I install 235/40/18 - 9" wide rims. I have friend running 235/35/19- 8.5 wide, he has no complains. If these will not work what is the biggest wheels I coud put on it without rubbing?
Jeff

I was running 19x9 up front and 19x10 in the rear. Front had clearence all day everyday. The rears rubbed on the smallest of bumps or if you had someone in the back. I rolled and pulled the rear a good 3/4" and was fine except for massive dips and then they only hit the little tab that connects the rear bumper to the panel. I have the Tein S-Techs.
