18" + Eibach Pro-Kit a problem?
Hello once again my friends.
Tuesday I am purchasing some:
18x9.5 w/275/35/18's (Front)
18x10.5 w/275/35/18's (Rear)
along with the Eibach Pro-Kit (lowers approx 1.5 inches)
Will I have any problems with this rubbing/not fitting?
Thanks for your input!

What's up! I
I also have the Eibach Pro-kit. Although I'm currently running 295's in back, I used to have 285/35 Nittos.
With my 18x10.5 Z06 wheels in back, I did have a rubbing issue when making hard trurns. I ended up having to roll the rear quarterpanel fenders in just a bit. Seeing that you'll only be running with 275s in back, you should be okay; however, check to make sure that your rear tires are centered. Lowering the car has a tendency to shift the rear wheels/axle to the right. I had to buy an adjustable panhard bar to re-center the wheels with the body.

Shouldn't be too much of a problem as long as you have the adj PHR and I would recommend Tubular LCA's and relocation brackets to make sure the rear stays where it's supposed to be and you don't have spinning problems. I had intrax 1.5's and 17x11's with a 315 tire and the only rubbing I had was taking inclines at an angle then it would rub on the inside when the axle would go in a severe angle.

Ok I really appreciate the input guys.
I decided I will be buying 275/35/18's for the front and 295/35/18's
for the rear. I will see how she sits before I decide to purchase the Eibach
Pro-Kit. I really don't want too much wheel well though...
