Will these fit & not rub? SSR 18x8.5 49+ offset on KW CS coilovers?
 
I would like to mount a set of SSR 18x8.5 wheels with a 49+ offset on a FRS with KW CS coilovers and lowered. Tires i'm thinking would be 245/40/18 but can be changed if this wont fit.
Will these rub with this offset? How would a 33+ offset be different and do I need something closer to that?
Thanks in advance.

Wrong section, broseph.

But depending on how low you're running your coilovers - you shouldn't rub too much. That's a conservative setup

I'm setting up the car for the track (road course) so no crazy drops but it will be low. And ideally would like to not rub at all!
Do I need to decrease the offset or will this be fine?

Yes I actually did an extensive search and read that guide, it gave me an idea of what i'm looking at but did not specifically answer my question.

Its an SSR 18x8.5 wheel with a 49+ offset thats a rare setup for 245/40/18 and im guessing the KW's will lower it 2 inches if not more, hence I'm unsure & skeptical..

coilovers will give you more clearance vs stock struts on the inside. You will be a very tight fit but it will fit.
