Wish me luck..Front 18x9ET39, Rear 18x10ET62
I'm highly considering purchasing a set of Forgestar F14s in an 18x9ET39 front fitment with rear 18x10ET62. I want to run R888s in a 255/35/18 in the front and 285/30/18 in the rear. The main purpose of this is to maximise the rubber under the stock fenders.
From what I have read, ER used to run an 18x10ET62 on their race car with the same tyres and rubbed only a bit on the inside rear wheel well. I am hoping that my M3 rear subframe isn't going to cause any additional issues. I also saw a post from someone who ran 18x9ET41s with a 5mm spacer and they said it seemed ok. This was with 2.7º camber though and I plan on running at least that or more as I predominantly track this car. Anyone have any comments before I take the plunge? Also, any suggestions on colours? They have a lot of options but I was probably leaning more towards just plain silver, textured black or race gold http://www.forgestar.com/v2/wheelsf14.php

really interested to see how much camber youll end up with.
dont forget the r888s are a wider tire than a mpss so they might need more camber/fender roll than what someone running a 255 street tire claims... what color is your car |

I suspect I'm going to have to run at least 3 degrees of negative camber at the front which shouldn't be an issue for me since I only really track the car or drive to and from the track. I currently run AD08Rs which have quite wide shoulders too. I'm hoping that the R888s don't run too much wider than those.
