yes sport package calipers.

18x9.5 et35 no issues, if you run et15 and a 275/35/18 tire then you better have a decent amount of front camber to not rub

Will be running 3 degrees negative in front with 3 way remote adjustables.

I run around -2.6 in the front.

I wouldn't run +15 on offset (20mm spacer?) though, unless there's a reason to?

If I understand correctly, the 18x9.5 +35 should clear just fine according to your data, so why run a spacer that would create clearance issues?

You ran a 275/35 up front with no issues? That definitely simplifies things.
