18x9.5 TEs on 255/35s. Got a touch of rub on the front right at the event last weekend. Otherwise, it's solid.

Do you have a weight for each tire and wheel combo?

EC-7R 17x9.5" ET40 = ~18.5 lbs.

EC-7R 18x9.5" ET40 = ~19 lbs.

Our forged EC-7R wheels carry a 1600 lbs. load rating, which is substantially higher than the JWL standard for the 86/BRZ chassis of 1190 lbs.

Here is a link to our EC-7R page with more info: LINK

18x10 +38 fitted with my old 265/35R18 tires for test fitting.
But enough clearance all around to put 275's on this spring.

CSG Spec Tein Flex A coilovers should be fine for fitting 265/35 tires right? Assuming 18x9.5 wheels

Correct, CSG Tein Flex would be a great way to go to get the inner strut clearance you need up front. Beyond that, just ensure you have a healthy amount of negative camber dialed in via the camber plates to clear the fender side

275/30/17 RC1R2 on Apex 17x9.5 -4*/-3* ~25in fender to ground
Front rubs on inside at about 11 o'clcok if looking at the passenger wheel and slightly on unrolled fenders.
Rear rubs fender (not rolled), bumper tab, and top of fender well at full compression.

Sorry to quote such an old post, but I’ve been going through this whole thread and loving every minute of it.

The below specs are quite close to what I’m keen to pull the trigger on (18x9 45F / 38R), but it appears to poke quite a bit more than I was expecting (based on other pics here). Is anyone able to confirm whether the below car is standard height? I’m not planning to go super low, so don’t really want any poke at about 25mm drop.

Thanks heaps.
