one of the reasons why i moved the DIY brake ducting down and in towards the center of the car was so that the mounting bolt in the liner wouldn't contact the tire.
a 245/35 might have had more clearance, but not by much.

Nope you're right, I got my signs reversed on the offset on fender side. Not sure if these are 'definitive' but I think for the non-M, these are the best fitments:
max 17" w/o spacer
17x8.5 et40
245/40-17
max 18" w/o spacer
18x8.5 et40
235/40-18 (a 245/35-18 would be better but not typically offered)
max 18" with 5mm spacer & camber
18x8.5 et40
255/35-18
