Hi Mark,
 
Rears will be fine, fronts might catch if your driving it hard as they will stick out 15mm more than standard.

Thanks for the info.  Someone else just told me that would sit a little too far in board??   That is a little concerning as the car is quite a bit lower than standard.  Having said that i\'ll use them primarily for drifting so no doubt will be stretching tyres over them which would gain me a few mm.  And I could always roll the arches?

Standard wheels are 8J +50, so the +35 will make the wheel sit out further.  Narrower stretched tyres will give you extra clearance like you said, so you should be fine.

I\'ve got 8.5" wide at the front & 9.5" at the rear both ET35 and they fit no problem, never catch the arches and thats in 18" on a pretty low FD

I\'ve got 8J x ET38 (so 3mm more in than that) on quite a narrow 215 tyre ( - 255 on the back tho 9J x ET38)



Dunno how low but it\'s on tein HA coilovers and never rubs.. well except from bottoming out the bumper on hills

You will have no problems with those wheels....we ran both a 9J on the front as well as an 8.5J depending on the tyre type...but both tyres were 235 in width, no problems.
