New to this forum so a Big Hello to everyone!

I have a set of 18" Brabus Monoblock IV and would like to ask if anyone can advise me on the best size tyres and bolts to use so I get the least rubbing (I know I will get some). I am also looking to lower it about 40mm, so if anyone can recommend a good lowering set up.
Also whats the correct bolts to use?

I would really appreciate some help on this, thanks in advance

Are they replicas?

I beleive the fronts are limited to 225 width with most cars but there rears can handle anything from 225/40/18 - 255/35/18

No, they are original Brabus.

I've got 2 new michellin pilot 2 245/45/18, but these would probably be too big?
