Question 18 x 9.5J track wheels?

I know a few of you run 18 x 9J for track wheels...

Has anyone had experience of 18 x 9.5J all round?

Any potential clearance issues using 265/35/ZR18 Cups? (I run -2.5 degrees camber at front)

Depends on offset Rob, I reckon with a 27 offset they would be fine.

I run 265 35 18 on 9j rims with success, so 9.5 no advantage really for me.

Why ET27? Is that the optimum offset to avoid contact interference?

How about 18 x 10.5J ET28 on rears only with 18 x 9.5J ET41 on fronts?

Out of interest, what are the ETs on the standard CSL 19" Cup wheels?

will this not cause the car to tramline or "track" quite badly?

With that offset you may be tucked in the arch a little, they might be perfect, just try them. Suck it and see.

It will look so schweet Rob

You have PM by the way.

Given the clearance I have at 9" ET26 - 2.5 I would think you need an ET 30-32.

This picture is with slightly less camber, maybe -2
