springs are second hand so i dont know how low. they sit over the tire and the guards sit about 1 inch above the rim (pretty low) running 205's, rear doesnt scrape at all, front scrapes on full lock, guards arent rolled or flared.

i wouldnt mind trying to fit 225's under the rear

Ive got 17x7s all round. Lowered 2.5" all round. 205/40 tyres. Tyres sit under the guards. No scrubage. We had 17x8;s on the back with 225's, it didnt look like it would rub, the only reason I didnt keep them was they couldnt get an offset in those rims that would clear the spring seat far enough for my liking.
