Square 265/35x18
 
Im thinking of getting sorted with a square set up to see how it feels, not for track use but fairly keen road use.

Im wanting 9x18's with 265/35x18's, I have standard height with no real view to lower the car, how will I fair with front arch clearance ?

Depends on offset.

I found 18x9 et25 perfect.

I'm running team dynamics pro race 1.2 18x9 et20 with 265 all round. I run a 12mm spacer in the rear. No problems at all.

Whilst 18x9 allows you some flexibility with offset, don't forget for looks you'd better get biggest offset to fill arches.

But on the road I would stick with OeM rims sizes tbh

I had arch touching tyre with et20 and 10mm rear spacer

That was 265 35 18 yoko a048, and only on track with v heavy cornering G. Both front and rear iirc

I then switched to et25 because of this

Square setup is not the best for road driving, I find it tram lines a little.
