I would like to know if the fronts will rub with this tire profile?
Highly doubt you'll rub. I have 8.75" wide +35 offset on Sportlines which pokes out .25" (3.2mm) further than yours and I don't rub. My tires are 235/40. Based on my table a few posts up, you'll have 6mm poke in the front and 6.2mm tuck in the rear. OEM camber bolts will bring your fronts in about 6mm (nicely flush) while staying within alignment spec. Inner clearance will be good as people run 9" wide +42 offset wheels (much worse for inner clearance than your desired wheels) with no inner clearance issues. They're able to clear the stock strut perch by 1/4".
