Depends on how low, I have swift spec r, and 1/2" spacers on stock 18"s. I had no rubbing with stock tires but got very minor rubbing in the rear when I changed to 225/40 front and 235/40 rear Dunlop zII's, I removed the spacers and all is good.

Almost impossible to rub without spacers.. The sizes and offsets on 18" 313's are very conservative. 18x7.5 +49 front and rear 18x8.5 +52, even lowered on stock size tyres with 10mm spacers you would be fine.
