No rubbing with...
18x8.5 +45 FRONT wheels with 225/40/18 OR 235/40/18

When you say "i have 18x8.5 offset 40 on mine and 225/45/18 all around but in the front even with 5mm spacers they rub on full turn."
...you are actually running 18x8.5+35

Why are you running the 5mm spacers? And why did you buy tires that aren't the right size?
