If your rims are touching your calipers thats not a spring or tire problem...thats a wheel problem.

like said, springs have nothing to do with the rim touching the caliper.

there will be NO rubbing! I have a set of progress springs and 224/45ZR18 tires, and i dont rub, and from parking next to a coby with sportlines, the progress drops it 1/2 inch more. You wont have any problems!!
