The front fitment depends on suspension, topmounts and camber so it is difficult to give advice based on anything other that my own setup.

As there is only 1mm difference between a solution that is known to work on multiple cars and et25 I'd certainly consider it but don't want to offer it as a full solution to your question and make you buy something that doesn't fit!

Totally. Will depend on set up, ride height and camber. IMO a 265 is pushing it on the front anyway, I hope to run camber up to -3 but want to keep it as close to the strut as possible to avoid issues with rubbing on arches. Do you have any pics of a ET25 up front?

Nords has some pics of a 265 tyres on an ET26 OEM rear up front running road camber of circa 1.5 degrees I believe. You'll be able to find them somewhere on here

Et27 rears do not work pm road geos, they hit the arches hence why I said et30

Need Nords on here - he left his Intrax top mounts in the road position and didn't get rubbing?

buy my 4 x rears and you have solved your problem. et26 18x9 all around and only £220, but i'll do you deal as you sorted me out on the top mounts

both of these using 9j NOT 9.5j.

9j will be a few mm better both sides

We are talking about 9J wheels here though?

Team Dynamics don't make a 9.5...

yes i know but 9.5J rear CSL rims rub on arches on road with -2 camber

9j rims with 265 tyres wont be much better so i would def go et30 rather than et25 on road biased car
