Offset for 18 in track wheels
Can anyone tell me the correct offset for 18x8.5 front and 18x10 in rear wheels for use on a dedicated 968 track car?

Dave,
I have 18x9.5 and 18x10 CCWs. The 9.5 fronts have a 7.5 inch backspacing and the 10s have an 8 inch. No issues with the rears at all. The fronts have to have at least -1.8 deg camber to clear. The tires are RA-1s: 275/35 and 245/40.

Well, I wanted to give the installer a challenge! Actually, the tire is rated for that wheel width and it will stiffen the sidewalls a bit. It doesn't look like I'll get any track time on them till next year so we will have to wait to see how they do. I think there is room for 255s if need be.
