Tires with 1.5 eibach springs

I'm Looking at getting 17x9 Cobra wheels 4.25 on 5 and was unsure on tires if I lower it would 255/45/17 fit in the front without rubing. Also If I lower it do I have to replace the shocks and struts or will they be ok.

Thanks for the help

I have a '93 with the 1.5 inch Eibach lowering springs, 17x9 Corbra R replica wheels and 245-45-17's. The fronts rub slightly while turning. I would expect a little more with the 255's. I don't think it is enough to be a problem.

Sorry forgot about the suspension pieces! I have the stock shocks and struts on it with the stock swaybar and end links in back. Seems to work!
