I'm sure this has been done 100's of times....

Anyway 9x18 on front and 10x18 on rear, I'm thinking ET30 all round with 255/35 and 275/35 tyre combo.... Any issues???

Track use?

Most use square set up 9x18 or 9.5 x 18 all round which means you can swap tyres front to back, left to right and get extra use out of them.

You'd have to check rolling radius and diameter to Czech your choice isn't any worse than OeM or wheel speed sensors can be affected, id guess front may have to be 255/40 but may be touch and go.

Why some people prefer 18 vs 19 ?

Square set up
Can swap wheels/tyres front to rear and left to right
I find better feel/front end grip
Cheaper tyre
More track tyre availability
Better slick availability

Everyone is different though Alex.
