well just to sum it up, since you got the right tire size, 225/40/18, you have the same stock rolling diameter as if you had stock wheels and tires.

lowering it can really only hurt you if your offset is something wild like something that makes the tires overhang REALLY bad.

just hit up a reg alignment and your set

I have only scraped my SFB once and that was today, not damage to the car but it sure did sound bad. I was actually hard pressed to find the scrape. and your going to be lower than me. just keep in mind you can't off-road anymore.
