Default 17x7.5 with 45 offset

Well fellas. I need to know if 17x7.5 with 45 offset and 225/45/17 wide Azenis will rub on my 5th gen when im beating on it, especially AUTOX and road course.

I have Eibach sportlines with 2.25in drop and AGX shocks.

mines rub only because i have a front kit and my splash guards are not held in securely towards the bottom, so when wind picks up it pulsl it back a little.... but if it wasnt for that, it doesnt rub for me... same size rims and tires for me, no drop..
