the 1.5" drop the sport lines provide would be perfect for my DD.
1. Camber bolts will help with the poke, but I don't know if you will be able to totally get rid of it with just camber bolts. I could be wrong on this, I am really not sure.

2. With a 235/40 tire, you shouldn't have any clearance issues, but your speedo will be off by about 3% (when your speedo reads 60 MPH, you will actually be going 61.8 MPH). For comparison, a 245/35 tire would only off by 0.5% (when speedo reads 60 MPH, you will actually be going 60.3 MPH). Your original size of 245/40 would throw the speedo off by 4.3% (when your speedo reads 60 MPH, you would actually be going 62.6 MPH). These are all when compared to the stock setup. You can have this re-calibrated (I believe) if you choose to go with either "40" section tire, or just leave it as it is. Just know that you will be going slightly faster than your speedo will read.

FWIW I am running 18x8.75 +33 wheels with 245/35/18 tires on Eibach Pro-Kit and have no issues. I love the setup honestly.

Hope this helps.
