It seems like 18x10 ET55-60's would sit perfectly on the back of a late offset car. My 18x10 ET65 on my S2 sit about 1 fingers width from my ebrake cable and spring plate bolt. I run 285/30/18's. I may add a 7mm spacer as the rears sit in a little further then I like. I easily have enough room for 295's and can say that with the right wheels, 305's would fit under stock body work and suspension settings. Maybe I should try this on my 951!

PCA stock class - 1" wider than stock. So I use 8" up front with 245 and 10" rears with 285 (sometimes 275).

Yes, I run my 18x10 ET65s with a 1/4" spacer. Otherwise I get a wee little bit of rub on the undercoating on the inside of the fender well.

Van- I do as well. I have marks on both fenders on the inside from the tires rubbing. Only under very hard cornering though.
