Lowering springs rubbing concern

I currently have this squared setup:

Michelin Pilot Sport 4S 235/40-18
Apex FL-5 18x8.5" ET35

According to this guide:


Front & Rear: 18x8.5" ET35 or ET38 with 225/40-18 tires
Typically a direct fit. Certain compounds that run wider-than-average may require front negative camber.
235/40-18 tires can be a direct fit, but we strongly suggest dialing in front and rear negative camber to prevent rubbing. Amount of camber varies depending on tire brand and ride height.

So my concern is, will there be a need for camber plates if I install Dinan performance springs?

I'm not sure what I'm supposed to check for.. I don't even know what part is supposed to rub with which part lol I'm pretty new to this..

Don't want to spend $700 on camber plates :|

Please enlighten me!
Thanks!
