Need help!! need measurements

So I have a 2007 wrx with helix dna coilovers, and im rockin 245 by 45 by 18 tires and my fenders are rolled. I am going to go to a shop tomorrow to get my ride aligned and get my car adjusted because it is to low atm.

My question: wondering how low can i put my car without it rubbin on the front or rear?

not only does the rim and tire size matter but what is your offset? without knowing your offset it will be kind of hard to tell if you will rub or not.
