i have the heliums.. got yokohama's 205/45/16..
it rubs left rear corner if two passengers.. or somewhere i think over 170 lbs in the rear... and if going over slight hills at 50 mph greater.. or on street if big dip.. can rub easily.. this again is all with weight in the back.. with less weight can still rub.. but not as easily.. if you got no passengers or cargo in the rear.. it drives fine.. the standard shock has poor recoil with sustained weight.. with weight in the car, the rear bottom drops alot... test it.. drive for 10 mins.. over some dips hills with 3 people in back.. you get out and measure it... it keeps pretty low.. and the konigs offset so low.. guess they're saying 45 or higher for less chance of rubbing.. going to try to change out rear shock later.. think they say falken azeni's wall tends to be less square at the 205/45 size.. so maybe check out that brand.. goodluck..
