Slammed c63's

For all of you that are "slammed" or really low. What size tires do you guys run in the front? I'm on Muller 1 way coilovers, forgestar f14's (aggressive offset) and hankook rs3's. I have 275/35/18 rear. Tucking a hair of tire, around -2ish degrees of camber.I have it set for max performance handling. Not necessarily looks, and it doesn't rub in the rear. In the front I have 245/40/18 with -3 degrees of camber, tucking some tire. And rolled fenders. And I'm still rubbing on the front bumper lining but not rubbing on the fender. What size tire do you guys recommend me do. Maybe a 245/35 or 235/35? Also, my damper control is set 20/24 clicks from soft. So it's pretty stiff. Thanks guys!!

Kind of hard to chime in without any info on the rims.

Need widths and Offsets of the rims to know what you are dealing with.

Any pics of the car?

Why would anyone want to "slam" this car and throw the precision geomertry off? A drop with coil-overs makes sense but........

Nice. What are you running in the front? And do you rub in the front? What about camber
