If it does barely rub the fender liner, you can downgrade a little in tires size to maybe a 265-35-18, but then you're height ratio between the front and rear tires will be different....

My car has 265/35/18 & 295/35/18 with the same Kumho Ecsta MX tires
It tramlines really bad...
even when I had my 245/40/18 & 275/40/18 KDW TT it did that though...

well this thread is convenient
Man was just looking for some pics of 9.5s all around, this is a lucky find. What offset is needed up front to keep it from damaging the fenders in turns, and would it still fit in the rear correctly? Would like to be able to rotate my tires and save some rubber... as well as get the handling benefits.

I thought about trying this. When I ordered by LMGT4s the dealer sent me four 18 x 9.5s. I had to send two back while they sent me two 18 x 8.5s. I was afraid the rears wouldn't work on the front and I wasn't sure if you could use the same size tires front and rear so I didn't try it. The dealer didn't know they screwed it up until I called them.

I never thought that was called tramlining hehe, i call that tracking...
But N e ways, with the wider tires in front, you do notice "tramlining" a bit more yes. It's not too bad, but the wider the tire in the front, the more you will notice this.
theres one main patch of fwy on my route to work that i hit where i notice it badly, but it was terrible even with stock rims/tires, it's a 100 foot patch in two lanes of the fwy, it's just CA's crappy roadwork there....
and yes, it's my daily driver, there's no problems with driveability at all
