How Low Should I Lower My Camry?

First off I would like to say Hello to everyone and Thank you for your advise regarding performance chip for a 1998 V6 Camry I appreciate your input. About 6 mths' ago my local Toyota Dealership installed a set of TRD Lowering Springs which droped my car 1.25" well now I kinda want to lower my '98 Camry another 1/4" for a total drop of 1.50" and I'm in the market of purchasing a set of 18" x 7.5" wheels but I've been told that if I lower my car another 1/4" the wheels would rub, is this true? I think that if I put a set of 35 series low profile tires I should have more than enough clearance under the fender well, so what are your thoughts?
Thanks
I.G.

If you want a lower drop, consider getting TRD/Eibach Solara springs. I've got this set up and I'm left with about a 2 finger gap.
