Just purchased a set of Eibach Lowering Springs 50mm and some G-Max shox all round. will i need to alter the arches in anyway or will they not rub at all?

Nah m8, eibach - 50mm jobbos shud be pretty low!

Handling will be spot on aswell. U will need to debolt and scuff some plastic off arch but its a simple task!

If u dont want em, i can always take em off your hands!
