1) why are you running a 245/35 on a 9.5 rim?
2) brighten up the shadows on your photos so the black wheels can be made out better.

car looks good though, but you can get away with much more tire with that offset.

Rubbing issues are not allowed in Switzerland.
I wanted to be safe with clearance.

What is the largest wheel / tire size combo all the way around that I can get away with on Eibach Pro kit springs and otherwise stock suspension? Will 18x9.5 +38 w/ 255/35/18 tires work without issue?

Camber is -1.1 in the front and -1.3 in the rear.
I'll be going to probably -2.0 in the front to help more with cornering.
