Stock tire on lowered TL

I just bought a 2012 SH-AWD TL. I wanted to lower it with H&R springs. I wanted to know if the stock wheel/tire combo will rub. I plan to take vacation next month and the car will be loaded with kids and luggage. Just wanted to do it before I went so I could enjoy the ride a little more. Any suggestions would be helpful. Thanks.

Stock setup will not rub,the rims are too far in for that to happen.Offset's of 35mm and less will rub,i think the offset on the oem is around 55mm.

no it will not. tire will tuck. h&r doesnt drop it enough to where it will even rub inner quarter panels.. you have nothing to worry about.
