Default Will this suspension set up rub? *searched*

Im going to go H&R Race springs (2.5f & 2.25r drop) with 205-45-r16. I need to know if this is going to rub?

I searched and I didnt really find a straight answer. Some people say go with 205-40-r16 but I really don't know.

Can anyone give me any input?

offset of your wheels and amount of camber are going to make the biggest difference in rubbing.

How wide of a wheel are you planning on getting?
16x7 with +38 rubbed on my car with 1 degree of negative camber but it was slammed. The same wheels with a +40 and 2.5 degrees of camber did not rub.
