At the moment I have 245/45/18 on all four corners.

I will lower my car on G Power springs, so approx 30mm in the front and 20mm in the back.

I am putting new tyres this week and I don't want it to rub, do I need to lower the profile on my tyres?

I was thinking that I need to go down to 245/35/18.

Hey brother! Long time no see!

I wouldn't lower the profiles on those tires, man - I've never heard of 18s rubbing. Ever.

Hey V its been awhile.

Haven't been around much for the last few months, I didn't want to tempt myself while I got my finances sorted.

I kinda got myself into a bit of debt but its all sorted now and I've learnt a lesson with credit cards

I'll most likely change the profile to 245/40 as opposed to 245/45 like I have now, that's what is recomended on the size chart on the door pillar.
