Welcome.
They are to tall that's why they rub. Should be 235/40/18 :)

Hi, yea the profile is too large and should be a 40 or 35 series profile. I have 18's on my evo and they dont rub. Also are they the correct offset? ET?

18's give you more top end and a little extra in each gear. Not much difference in price between 17's & 18's plus 18's fill the arches better.
