alright, thanks to nikki, verified tt 9.5" et35 will clear the inside of the rear wheel wells.
question i'm having now is, front diameter is going to be 25.4", and rear is going to be 26.35". how significant is this 0.95" difference in tire diameters going to affect stance, handling, speedo error etc, if any?
am looking at a local set of m6 reps - 18x8.5 et35 fronts with 235/40 ps2's, 18x9.5 et35 rears with 265/40 ps2's. $1200 picked up sounds reasonable? 1 year old, 6000 miles, minor curb rash on one of them, no bends, cracks, peeling etc.
