35 ET on rear?

hi - anyone running a 35 ET on the rear w/ 10" wheels (say 275 rubber)? here's a pic of my car w/ 40 ET 10" 275 and not sure i can fit that extra 5 mm but not a lot of experience w/ this stuff and have a line on a set of wheels ...

I'm running 19x10 et 35 on my Boxster tires are 255 though but there still is about a 1/2 inch from wheel to fender.

thanks. with a 275 we are looking at an additional 20 mm or 1", so 1/2" each side - it would be cutting it darn close in my case hey?

Yea I would say without any type of camber adjustments it would be very very close to hitting the fender with a 275 tire on.

For my rear, I normally use a 10" OZ with an et 40 offset, with a 3 mm spacer, which brings the total offset down to 37 mm.

I am using this with a 285 30-18 RE71R tire, which has a maximum section width of about 11.4" on this wheel.

With my ride height and -2.5 degrees camber, this set up does not scrub the fenders, but looks like it is about the widest set-up possible without rolling fenders.

Yours may work, but it will be close.

I run 10 et35 with a 265 and 3degrees camber and 5mm spacers. Clears fender just. It is quite low. Close to the handbrake cables too.
