The rear gets a lot of compression camber gain as it is a 4-link setup with no upper control arm, so at your current ride height I think it would easily tuck past the fender with practically any tire. If you lower it and adjust the camber back outwards you'll change the geometry slightly which will bring the tire a little closer to the fender. For a slight lowering you will probably be fine, but if you lower it a lot you will need to run a fair bit of camber.
