OK wheel gurus, wheel are here, now for tires
Wheels are Rota Grids 18x8.5 e44 / 18x9.5 e38. I want to run 235 40 18 in the front and 265 35 18 in the rear. Is the do-able with the stock suspension ( for now while I save my pennies for springs or coilovers ). And then will it work with a drop of 1 inch to 1.5 inches?

you're probably gonna wanna go skinner on the rears like 255 or 245. 265s might work at stock height but when you lower you're probably gonna rub depending how low you go and what camber you wanna run.

265's are going to be pushing it but I can assure you 235/40 and 255/35 will fit (thats what I am running on lowering springs only)

265 might rub only because your offset is too low. Might want something like a +45 if you want to run anything higher than 38, or you can run a few degrees of camber
