Message	I have a set of Volk GT-C in 18x9 +42 and 18x10 +43mm. I'm Planning to order Michelin PSS in 255/35/18 and 285/35/18. I'm lowered on Eibach pro kit/kyb agx and my fenders are not rolled. will i have any inner clearance (shock body/kingpin arm) or outer clearance issues (rubbing) at this ride height with these tire sizes? Front: 18x9 +42 255/35/18 Rear: 18x10 +43 285/35/18 Any insight is appreciated.
