Awesome build mate. 215/35 should give you nice clearance.

Absolutely.that will help. My old tires on my 18x8.5 was 215/35 and no rubbing, fenders rolled (but rubbing only at full lock and i hit a bump) you should be alright.

haha you have any pics dude? I'm wondering if I should do 215 40 or go with 215 35

also, does anyone know if dropping from a 225 40 to 205 40 help with rubbing?

dude! how'd you set the front shocks up btw? I either have mine too far in or something because it sounds like shit when I try to drive. lol. did you use the oem rubber stuff along with the stuff that came with the shocks?
