ANYONE WHO KNOWS WHAT SIZES I NEED FOR NO RUBBING ON 22's

I wanna obviously buy 22's, I jus dont want any rubbing and im not an expert on what all the tire sizes mean and offsets..... Also I notcied that bolt above the front tires.....

1) If i plan on lowering the car how will that effect that bold

2) do i need to consider different tires if im going to lower it?

and also wut do u think of lexani krystals..... i had lexani krystals on my montero sport, do u think they would match this car in 22's well.... I think lexani the name and the look are both classy...

Mine is lowered with 22x10 in the rear and 22x8.5 in the front and a 15mm offset. There is no rubbibg at all and the turn to turn does not touch the inner wheel wells. Plus dont worry about the bolt. As long as you are running the 265/35z22 then it will sit just below the bolt and the bolt moves with the tire so it will never touch.

I am running 22x9.5 +15 offset with 285/30/22 Dunlop 9000. I finally got rid of the rub I had when in reverse at certain angles with full turn. I grinded the arm about 2-3mm and now there is no rubbing. I like having the wider tires personally but you would have to make sure you had a 15 or less offset, if it was 18 or more it would not work...
