Excel Ennio's 18 x 8, 38mm offset, with 225/40/18 tires. I searched but couldn't find a decent answer. So will they rub?? Oh, and i'm lowered with AGX's and H&R springs.

They might. Depending on your car, they may end up cutting on your rear fenders as well.
What do you mean "depending on my car"??

Guys, i really need an answer. I'm getting a really good deal on these wheels, but i don't want them rubbing.

Well each car is slightly different so a wheel that doesn't rub on one may have serious issues on another. It has to do with build tolerances.
Those are wide wheels with a relatively low offset so they're going to be sitting out in your fenders at about the extreme border of what is and is not ok.
Mine are 18x7.5 with a +45 mm offset. WIth my brake kit, I had one tire cut pretty seriously on the driver's side and no issues on the passenger side. I figure my brake kit increased my track by about a cm. So that leaves those 18x8's you're talking about in about the same position that mine are now.
So they might have issues and they might not. If you get a brake kit like mine then they almost certainly will have issues, likely on both sides.
Hopefully this answers the question.
You can fix issues with a high offset using spacers. There's really no option for fixing issues with a low offset. You've just gotta hope rolling the fenders is enough but you may not be able to roll them at the front where they cut in.
Thats a great answer Kevin. Thanks a bunch.
