with 265/35/18 tyres and 9.0J rims, if you can get 30-35 et offset they will fit in nicely

mine are 9.5J with same tyres and et34 and dont rub on any decent camber

Fitted my 18inch OZ Ultaleggeras last night and Shimmy's earlier comment of a possible issue with standard suspension and square set up has got me a little concerned. Im running 10mm spacers front, havent got a fooking clue what the offset is but ill take a picture tonight so you can see what it looks like. Dont fancy them rubbing the arches.

Barry did you have any issues on the last TD you did?

ps... I know I should stop being a tight cooont and fit some KW's. Had Inp 2, new tyres, tax,and insurance this month so skint...thats the excuse im sticking too.

Edit to add pics

[shimmy]

with 265 fronts i reckon we have about 10mm space between Intrax shocks and arch liner rubbing.

My car was about 1mm off damper so i added 3 mm spacer so i am about 6mm off damper and 6 mm off arch.

now with nitron the damper is about 3mm bigger on the threaded spring base so i have less space to get wheel into. i have about 1mm space with 3mm spacer fitted so i reckon i can addd about another 5-6 mm before wheel hits arch. dont do hubcentric 8mm spacers so gonna try Duncs 10mm spacers and see whats what!

Ah right. Ill find out sunday at Donny. Ive got some 19's with cups fitted as a back up though.

....balls havent got cups fitted, meant super sports. The spare cups ive got are nearly dead and 4 years old so new supersports are probably better anyway.

I went out for a bit yesterday on the raod and couldnt see any sign of arch rubbing. Hopefully it will be ok on track.

Will probably take 19's as back up though

I have been comparing these tyres with 265/30/19 fronts which rubbed at et27 however the 265/35/18 are 1.1 inches less diameter so about 13mm less radius and less poking into the wheel arch. So might be easier to work, just keep an eye on the arch rather than arch liner maybe

Still try it on full lock and soft suspension but where it will matter at Donny is compression at Craners or under braking at Redgate.
