Default rear tire size question

I Just wanted to ask if a 18X10 +43 wheel with 285/35 tire would rub at stock height. What if the car was lowered about 1.5"?

the best answer I could find is in this thread .

Thanks,
Nick

stock height should be fine. but once you lower it 1.5 inches.... there's your problem. you're gonna have to do some fendor mods.
