Has anyone tried 245/40/20 and lowered spring together?

question guys, had anyone of you tried 245/40 tire specs on a 20 inch wheels and then lowered it using either eibach/h&r/weitec springs?

is it possible without rubbing? as I checked some pictures there are pretty quite gap there to fill there when using profile of 35.

please post pictures of 245/40 on lowering spring please if you have.

thank you!

A 245/40/20 will be too large. A 245/35 and lowing springs will get rid of all the fender gap for you

well, I have seen 245/35 go with eibach pro kit and the gap is still too much to handle!

still curious of 245/40 using lowering kit though.
