I'll have to go et22 all round with a 10mm spacer on the rear -3 camber on front for road

No good. Et27 rear CSL rims can rub at -3 so def don't go worse than that.

What rims were you looking for?

Apex arc8 9.5/18, come in et35 or et22, was going to get the et35, didn't think there would be clearance issues.

What's the minimal spacing you need with your offsets for the Nitron shocks.

With mine I think you'd need about 30-32. But I don't see why you shouldn't be able to change the helper spring and get the bottom platform in a better place, higher or lower to miss the wider part of the tyre, or worse case use a Intrax platform as they seem smaller. Worse case et35 with 10mm spacer.

et32 will mean a 3mm spacer, that's what you use, so OK with the hub.

10mm?? rubbing?? Are the hub extenders a no go then?

Yep, 10mm to et25 will mean -3 camber nd still close to wheel arch, try and stay away from this.

I use 3mm spacer and it's fine as hubcentric bit still pokes out enough. You could try the 5mm but most say it doesn't allow enough of the hub ring to poke through.

Might be worth having a range of helpers springs handy when you fit them.

That's what the hub extender is for, smac says no, to me they look like they will work fine in keeping the wheel centric.
