mods for 255/35 on front apex?

Hi. Does anybody run 255/35/18 extreme performance tires (direzza zII, Bridgestone re-11, ventus rs3) with their apex front wheels with Dinan camber plates and m3 control arms and have no rubbing even at full compression? If so are your fenders rolled? Just worried if I Would be able to fit them with dinan camber plates and m3 control arms and camber maxed out (I think the m3 control arms might kick the wheel out a small amount). Any input is appreciated. Thank you.

I have all that Plus car is lowered a bit with swift springs. -2.5 camber up front no rubbing. ARC 8s with RS3s. Car also has seen 6 track days this year. No rubbing whatsoever. Fenders are not rolled.

^ Really??? I have 245/40/18 AD08, m3 arms, alignment pin removed and maxed out front camber without camber plates. Barely got it to fit without rolling. Bumper tab is the biggest issue for me.

A 245/40R18 tire is taller than a 255/35R18, thats why. I run 255/40/17 w/ -2.5* up front, no rub.
