new rims set up need help

[tpakar21]

hey guys, im having a problem right now, i just bought a new set of wheels, size is 18x8 +35 offset, and tires are from my previous rx-8 rims 225/45/18 im on a stock height, stock shocks and strut, 1 is leaking., i am rubbing on little bumps.
i will be on koni yellow and prokits on thursday, im just bothered that it might not fit, any inputs? or does anyone here had experienced this? should i change my tires to 225/40/18? will koni yellow make the ride better? thanks

I don't think Koni will help...

225/40/18 is the proper size...

With the offset you have the only thing i could see helping you is getting the fenders rolled

so dropping with pro kits wont be an issue if i get my fenders rolled?

correct. unless you turn up the stiffness on the konis, rubbing shouldnt be too bad. surprised ur even rubbing on stock oem setup.
