Question Wheel and Tire Fitment Help

I got front 19x8.5 +22 tire 235x35x19 and rear 19x10 +26 245x40x19 stag wheels on my 3GS 07. I planning to drop it with coil Megan EZ, but I dont know should I drop now and will it rub he rear or front since my rear fender already cut, or change all the tires first.

Your front tires are a good size. Very close to factory spec. The rears are an inch too tall (compared to the factory 18's). All this coupled with your very aggressive offsets, you're guaranteed to rub. If your front and rear fenders have been done, your front is might be OK but the rear will definitely rub. I say replace your rear tires with 255/30/19 or 245/35/19 to stay at or near factory spec. Good luck and post pictures when done!
