Square Setup - Opinions Wanted

So correct me if my analysis is wrong here. The wheels would extend out 17mm more due to offset and 12.5mm more due to the increased rim width so overall the front wheels would stick out 29.5mm more in the front using 4 rear Rays wheels. I would think you would need to run a rear spacer to keep it from looking strange. Would the fronts extend out past the edge of the wheel well?

That would be a close one I think. I bet that'd all depend on your camber. I am running -2.5 front camber and I believe I have something like 1.5" between the edge of the rim and my fender - that makes for about 38-40mm of space. In that case the rim should fit with 10-12mm clearance. Not sure how it'd do under load/turns.
