You can, rpf1 9.5 + 15. Go 285 tire, boom, square.

If you run a good amount of negative camber in the front it will look good too. Without camber it will stick out about 10mm on the top. My +25 setup with stock camber of 0.5* is about 1/4" sticking out.

I run 9.5 +45 with a 20mm spacer and 10.5 +15. Ill be using 285 square but obviously I can't rotate front and rear but popping tires off the wheel and swapping shouldn't be to much to complain about.

A 9.5 +15 rear will be in 13mm from where I have it now. Now I'm about flush so you'd be fine to run that 9.5 back there.

Just used my first set of track rims/tires this past sunday and loved it. Running Enkei PF01 18x10.5 +38 front +15 rear. I had a 10mm spacer on the front but I honestly dont think its necessary. Tires are Toyo R888 275/40-r18. Car was extremely neutral and felt incredibly easy to handle for my first time out there.
