Some people are so naive when it comes to fitting wheels and tires. To the OP, your choices in sizes are fine and will work without a doubt.
Here is an example for all the ones saying "anything above a 275 won't work"
Front:
18x10.5 +15 285/30 V710
Rear:
18x10.5 +0 285/30 V710

Take off the spacer in the rear and a bigger tire easily possible. Rear's are rolled

-3.5 front and -3 rear?
actually perfect would be a +30 front wheel, and +15 RPF1's are not even close. To maintain proper steering geometry a +30 wheel is needed. Also with NT03's your not limited with tire size, +15 is cool for the street, but for the track where performance matters you need the proper offset for your steering, and proper offset for max tire size.
Unlike the stretch and poke people, -6 or other stupid camber setting arnt wanted for the track. With my setup i can run the camber my tires need, not the camber i would have to have to clear my tires on the fenders.

Robert K, what events have you been to this year? I went to TWS in March and MSR in May, both with TDE. I just started, so I'm in the green run group. 2 events under my belt so far. I plan to make it out to the October event at TWS.
