Default Want to raise my GT a little

I currently have Eibachs on my GT. Love the lowerd look but hate scraping in the driveway. Going w/ 18's(looking at the Mille Miglia Evo5)and Im wondering if the recommended 225/40 will still give me a lttle raise w/ the 18's? Would like to raise her up about 1/2 an inch. Anybody have 18's and lowerd w/ this tire size.

Any other suggestions on wheels? Like the Mille Miglia Evo5 look. Love the OZ rim, but not paying that much.

Just put a set of ASA J5's with a set of 225 4ZR 18 Michelein Pilot sport PS2s. I had the stock 205 50 17 Stock RSAs. The circumferencial difference was minimum. There was a larger wheel circumference, but that was negated by the 225 40 smaller sidewall height. Basically it was a wash as far as a difference in the overall height of the cruiser in the front. Next week I'll be installing Suspensoin techniques 1.3" lowering springs on all 4 corners along with Koni adjustable shocks. I'll take some before and after pics....
