I need to get out in it for some practice

Might take it to work in morning, see how icy it is first. Pointless task if icy.

Thanks for all the replies,

i'm thinking of pulling the trigger on some team dynamics 18x9 et30 all round?

Can any one confirm is this the right size or should I be going for a different offset. I don't want them rubbing or to have to roll the arches

If i fitted a different offset could i get away without spacers? I have AP's front and rear...

I assume 265/35 is ok on 18x9

finally, gloss black or matt black?

Ive had both gloss and matt, both et 30 and et20. All in 18x9.

I recommend 18x9 et30 with a 12mm rear spacer.

Also go matt black as I discoloured my gloss ones in the centres, due to heat from my brakes. I was driving it hard and the heat transfer faded the centres after 3 trackdays. Matt black FTW.

I also ran 265 35 18 with zero issue on 9j rim.

never tried but even if the rims fit...the problem you may have is the extra suspension travel especially on track so you may get rubbing.
