GRok25 Tire fitment

How's it going guys, Its been some time since I've last signed on but the time has come to buy some new summer tires.

I know that there are dozens of fitment threads but I figured I would get opinions for my personal car.

So now lets start......
My current wheel set up is Enkei Pf01 18" wide 18" diameter wrapped in Pilot sport A/S3 215/40/18

NOTE: my car is lowered on coils with a decent drop but I currently do not have any sort of rubbing (pics will come as soon as I figure out how to attach them to a post)

Anyways I am looking to get some new tires preferably wider. I have been looking at These Continential Extremecontact DW in the size 225/40/18. Any thoughts if this would cause any issues with rubbing? Or does anyone have or know someone who has a similar setup?

Again Pics are still to come for a visual aid
Thanks

Idk how the fitment would be while lowered, but I would think the 225/40 should fit, since there is only .3 of an inch difference in overall diameter from your 215/40. As to the Conti DW, I have no personal experience with them, but my last two cars both had the DWS and I loved them. I'm thinking about picking up some DW's as well for my '09.

Hopefully some others will give you more info as well.
