depending on how wide the wheel is and tire size, most likely not.

My rear is +17 19x10.5 with 285 tires and they DO rub. Use a 275 and it DOESNT rub. You should be fine

^ How damn wide is your wheel, what size tires will you be running, and what are you lowered on. Answer these questions and maybe we can help you.

Telling us you are running 20's with +18 offset is like telling us you weigh 200 lb and asking if you are overweight.... It's not enough info.

20x9.5 +18 with a 245 tire up front will NOT rub at your current ride height.

because i've seen hundreds of pictures of his car and i know how low it is. And there's a 90% chance that he's running a 9.5" wide wheel up front. You rarely see 8.5 or 10" fronts on coupes.
