Wheel/suspension problem TE37SL

So I'm currently running lowering springs on my FRS with my current wheels sitting at 18x9.5 +38 front 235/40/18 and wanted to replace them with the TE37SL in 18x9.5 +40 255/40/18 advan neova AD08 but was curious if it'll rub my springs. Anyone have this setup? Seeing if I need to buy coilovers to make it work. Thank you

It'll rub on the strut in the front. If you can afford TE37sl then get coils.

Will do. My FRS is white so hopefully it goes well. It's been an expensive build so far

It'll rub.

PM @CounterSpace Garage for a coilover/wheel package.

Here she is with the wheels and coilovers installed. Letting the springs settle before I do the drop and alignment. Hope you guys like it
