Not my car. However your not going to get much more rubber. 325/25/20 but why? It does not have a traction issue. Its got some meat on there already.

I'm literally about to drop mine with the same springs, same wheels, same color, exactly looks great! Noticed you said 7mm would be good for spacers why not wider? Just curious. Thanks.

I just had mine done today 7mm front, 15mm rear + H&R springs. The car looks and drives great. I'll post pics this week.

I have a very aggressive wheel offset right now especially the back. The wheels come out slightly past the edge of the car's fender on the back. Will I be able to lower the car with the H&R spring without rubbing issues?

Better to let the suspension travel so it can do its job. Better to not make the tires rub the body or suspension bits. Ideally coil overs work best, and when set to the maximum ride height (to minimize lowering). Are we blasting down B roads or cruising parking lots?

I thought the remark that the springs work with PASM was funny. Of course they do. The system's operation is independent of the springs.

But ultimately you can trust H&R to not make a product that causes issues. I would be careful about wheels and spacers without being very sure they don't cause rubbing issues. Ideally some comments about the change in handling would be useful.
