295/35/18 on 9.5" wheel

GSS138

I'm no tire+wheel wizard, but just to aggregate and comment on some things people have said above:


I personally run 10.5" RPF1's with 285/35 square with no spacers and have had 0 issues with spacing/rubbing/hitting the wheel wells so far.

arent you on stock ride height suspension?

strange but interesting..

I almost want to doubt what GSS138 said about what he has !! hehe
so my eye were probably playing games with me when I saw the top of the front tire were sticking out on the front fender which made me to roll them.

maybe some suspension binding? when I first installed them on the car,, soo Im a bit disturbed learning this.

bottom line is then I will try to get my hand on a 10.5 next year

I have a stock suspension and sport brakes, I didn't mention that they are 18" wheels-track only. I have no spacers, just hub centric rings.

I am good with tires, I know very little about wheels besides their dimensions and how much they weigh. If you want to know more private message Mike at corner 3 garage or if mike sees this post maybe he can comment. Mike is the one running the extreme speed promo in these forums that is endlessly bumped. :P

He is the one that did my setup so he can answer better than I can.

But yeah I have stock suspension, 18" x10.5" RPF1's, Hankook rs3's 285 square, sport brakes, no spacers and they work fine. Martin82 on these forums whom I track with once a month runs I think an identical setup and he has 1 way coliovers and cambers-not sure if he uses spacers or not though.

the front 370 suspension does have alot of camber gain under load, but when i test fit my rear 18x10.5 et15 with 285/35/18 tires even with -3.2, i didnt feel it would fit without "self clearencing" under load LOL

I feel the key factor here is stock ride height.

Martin is on Enkei NT03 with 18x10.5 et30, no spacer front, and spacer rear (20mm). from my testing and research, et28(which i run) to et30 (what martin and what the Robispec 370 used to run) for 18x10.5 is ideal, since it pretty much takes up all the inside space it can before hitting the knuckle arm. I feel if you end up getting coilovers and as your pace gets faster, you will start to have rubbing issues with the et15 10.5s
