I would prefer to have 18x10 in front and 18x10.5 in rear but most wheels only have either 9.5 or 10.5 for 18".

So I will go with 18x10.5 all around as my main goal is to be able to run a true square setup.

Clint, I saw your previous setup with:
F:18x9.5 +35 (20mm Spacer) - Offset=15mm; Camber: -3 Degrees
R:18x10.5 +15 (No Spacer) - Offset=15mm; Camber: -2 Degrees

If I were to go with the Enkei PF01, would you recommend the following?
F: 18x10.5 +38 (20mm Spacer) - Offset=18mm; Camber: -2.9 Degrees
R:18x10.5 +15 (No Spacer) - Offset=15mm; Camber: -1.8 Degrees

Will this clear the front brakes or not rub? Any help would be great.

Do you know of any 18x10.5 wheel setup that doesn't require spacers?
i.e. can I go with the following w/ same wheels all around? Will this clear the front brakes?
F: 18x10.5 +15 (No Spacer) - Offset=15mm; Camber: -2.9 Degrees
R:18x10.5 +15 (No Spacer) - Offset=15mm; Camber: -1.8 Degrees
18x10.5 et +38 with 20mm spacer will be too much. 10.5 et 28 (10mm spacer) and 9.5 et15 are the same outter clearance and what i feel is the performance oriented limit for clearance on track.

same with 18x10.5 et15, too far outward. street/flush/stretch guys can kinda run it, but not if you plan to do any tracking

either do my setup (18x10.5 sqaure, et38 and 10mm spacer for et28 front, et15 rear)
or martin's setup which will be my track setup as well soon(NT03 18x10.5 et30 all around 15mm spacer rear)

these two setups are track proven with 285/35/18 tires and clear the brakes no problem
