Anyone tracking with 18x10.5+22 and 18x10.5+18?

rear i want as much contact patch as possible with my turbos kicking in i'd like to have more grip in the rear ..
front cambered a bit more for better turn in response.. but i'm not quite sure how much better (or worse) it will be with fronts being 10.5 wide...

I'm running 18/10.5 all around with 315 A6's. I think the fronts are +15 with a 1/4 spacer and the rears are +35 (I didn't want to roll the rear lip) Obviously, I had to do some fender modification.
While I haven't been on 4 brand new tires since I bought the wheels, I would say that the increased front track width has helped turn-in and understeer quite a bit. If anything, I have rear traction issues, but I'm planning on making some offset bushing to help that problem. F camber 2.75 R camber 2

I'm running 18 x 10 RPF1s with 38 mm offsets all around and 285/30-18 Hankook Z211s. With 1/2" spacers in front and 1/4" spacers in the rear I needed to install longer wheel studs all around. My car is currently at the stock ride height so fender clearnace is not an issue at all. I might have a small problem in back so I'll either remove the 1/4" spacers or roll the fender lip.

I'm running the same offset +22 on 18x9.5 with 275/35/18 all around. My car is stock height so no rubbing issues. I did one trackday with stock camber settings and one with -2.7F and -2R. The car feels good this way and it has no understeer, on the contrary, it rotates rather easily on corner entry. This weekend I'll be dropping it 1".
Looks like no one has your exact setup in terms of width and offsets though.

so as a test fit,i put my 19x10.5 +22 CE28s on the front with 275/35/19 T1Rs and it barely cleared the inside suspension. i put a 3mm spacer, and it was just right- as for the clearance on the fender side, i'm am dumped currently and have a single finger gap if not less.. i'll probably have to raise the car up for sus. travel.. hm...
right now my current front wheel is a +15 18x9.5.. i can definitely fit a 265 there... hmm. maybe no need to go 10.5 in the front....

i threw on my LE28N 19x10.5 +22 with 275/35 T1Rs and the inside wheel cleared the suspension arm, and was flush with my fender. i put a 3mm spacer on (for effective +19 offset) however the wheel sticks out past the fender, and the only thing sitting inside is the tire. looked nice.. thats for sure. i only did one side since i was in a hurry, but i'll try to do both and drive around with it.
