11 to close is way easier to fix than 11mm too far away!! Glad it helped...

From the measurement I've taken on my Cayman R, the rear 18x10.35"ET47 will want a 7mm spacer to clear the OEM rear strut safely, and If you have aftermarket coilovers on the car that spacer size will likely increase on the rear of the car.
Up front, there is plenty of strut/coilover clearance. This sits 5mm further away than our 18x9"ET46 front wheels. That said, there is not enough available fender clearance on my car with our 9"ET46 for a 5mm spacer to equal that 9"ET41 front wheel. It would take camber plates to give me some more clearance in order to use that Clubsport front wheel.
Edit: Aftermarket stud kit will also be required due to the Clubsport wheel backpad thickness.

Nope, camber is negative 3 ish I think and ohlin springs are pretty strong so ride is track car harsh. I never crank the steering to full lock so no idea about that. Everything is very close.

Thanks for taking the time to weigh in with that detail, Brandon! I'd actually prefer a set of VS-5Rs but I have a line on these for cheap cheap. I run studs and currently 7/10 spacers. Stock struts, but camber plates in front. How much camber you think needed in front to tuck properly ?
