Proper tire diameter would be a

275/25/20, btw. Max offset when lowered and have about 2 degs negative camber i'd say is about a +45 to +48. Even with +45 i had minor rubs on one side.

In terms of suspension a GOOD RULE OF THUMB,

THE SHORTER THE SIDEWALL, i.e. BIGGER DIAMETER WHEEL, The MORE YOU HAVE TO DUMP THE CAR.

So if you only have 1" of sidewall left you're car should probably only have about 1" of "wheel gap" at most to be aesthetically sound imho. Typically it will be half of that sidewall height.

From that you can take your measurements and determine the appropriate spring setup. Worst case you get coilovers.
