Default 25 mm H&R wheel spacer question

All,
I have searched but couldn't find a definitive answer.
Right now, I'm runnning 25 mm spacer in the rear. My car is lowered by Eibach pro-kit (approx. 1 in all around). I'm running stock 17" wheel (17x8) and tire (235/45/17). I'm getting new set of tire soon and would like to go one size up: 245/45/17. Will I have rubbing issue in the rear?
Any input is appreciated.

you should be just fine if anything go with a 245-40 to be absolutely safe.

You should be fine. I ran 255/40/17 in the rear on stock 17s for 1.5 years before i got my first set of wheels. I had l-tuned setup in the pic below with 25mm spacers.
