how bad will i rub if i lower it?

ok heres the deal.. i have RWD 20 inch wheels on my maxima with 245/35/20 tires. they used to rub JUST A LITTLE when the wheel was completely turned.. but i shaved that little piece off and now theres no rubbing. i REALLY want to lower it because the gap is really bad from some angles (pics below) and was wondering how bad it will rub with some progress springs ( http://www.custommaxima.com/ProgressSprings.html )

here are pics

I would buy some 18's and then lower it.

Otherwise, you'll have trouble.

It would look better with 18's anyway. 20's are just TOO big. (This is only my opinion....flame on)
