So, I should have paid more attention to what the different tire sizes were offered and it looks like now, using Advan AD08, I can run a 265/35 F and 295/30 R with 18x9.5 et27 F and 18x10.5 et30 R. The front should be sunken in a little more then my original plan since I am going with a 265 tire instead of a 275 but everything will clear. Will this set up mess with VDC? The rears are showing a 5.2% difference (slower) then stock. I cant find a 295 rear with a 35 sidewall although the Hankook Rs3 has a 285/18/35 and that is 3% slower. It will look even more sunken in though so I will probably need a 15mm spacer even more to make it look right with the front. The size calculator says the rears will stick out 5mm farther then stock and the fronts 36mm. I am not concerned about flush, just making sure it is even and doesn't look weird. I am planning on going with swifts too if that makes a difference.
