ive looked into 295/30/18 also and man it is a short tire. even 275/35/18 is short and that's taller then 295/30. in RS3 i run 285/35/18 which is perfect. i know nitto makes the NT555RII in 285/35/18 which is what im told is a NT01 compound with a stiffer sidewall. i was going to look into this tire after my 275/35/18 Maxxis RC1 wore out

You mean 18x10 right? You sure in a rpf1? Just FYI based off of offset for OEM, now and planning...
OEM to now
Front inner- 16mm more clearance, Front outer- extend 28mm
Rear inner- 9mm more clearance, Rear outer- extend 21mm
OEM to planning
Front inner- 4mm less clearance, Front outer- extend 22mm
Rear inner- 12mm more clearance, Rear outer- extend 12mm
Now to planning
Front inner- 19mm less clearance, Front outer- retract 7mm
Rear inner- 3mm more clearance, Rear outer- retract 9mm
Based on offset it should work with nothing in the front and a 20mm in the rear. If the front does rub some where it'd seem a 5mm spacer would do so I'm 1mm more clearance over OEM in the inner and extend 27mm on the outer which almost equals what I have now. Even that seems over kill since most on OEM wheels do a 20mm or 25mm spacer. It'd just be like I'm doing a 22mm or a 27mm in the front.
