Love this!

Pretty sure I'm doing the same but have questions regarding tire size.

So the wheels are 18x8.5 +35, I'm thinking on running 235/40R18 front and 255/35/R18 rear.

I'd like 245s in the front but I feel like that's a going to be 3 degrees plus of camber?? Would like to keep it under 2. Currently on kw v2 but I don't think see any inner clearance.

Lastly anyone know if I could run a square 255/35 if I bought the n5tunner front fenders, says it gives 15mm of extra clearance. But I don't believe you get that much if you are full lock??

Will be autocrossing the car!

Any input or confirmation is much appreciated! Thanks!
Making a 255 fit on that spec in the rear will be really aggressive and need some camber and fender mods. 235 square is totally possible with a minimum of -2.5° of camber up front. The N5Tuner fenders don't change where you will rub, which is the bumper to fender mount bolt. Thus, I see them as a waste. I run 19x8.5 ET35 with a 225/35 up front and -2.5° of camber and get slight rubbing on the bumper mount bolt. You could maybe get a 235 in there, but a higher offset like ET37-40 would be preferred in which you'd be able to fit that 235 or 245 you desire.
