When I have my wheels built it'll be close to those specs. 19x10 square et 32-36, haven't decided yet but I'll be running them with the spacers since they won't have centercaps, the turner hub-extenders hide the hub rust when running Open lug racing wheels.

So final specs with spacers will be right around 19x10 et 22-25 front and et 28 rear. I still have a little room out back with this setup and camber plates up front would give me 5mm or so of extra wiggle room.
Thanks! Helpful.
Wanting 265/35 instead of 275/30 because I'm looking for some extra rubber between the ground and the wheel. My concern has been rubbing with the fender liner in front near the inlet duct. Clearance is very tight even with the stock wheels when they are turned and I want to make sure that the larger diameter doesn't rub there. I'm not concerned about inner rub with the strut or outer rub with the fender (because of my camber).
I too will be going with the Turner extenders. My wheel on order are 35 offset and was looking at either the 7.5 to 10mm extenders giving me a 27.5 or 25 offset. My rear offset will be 35 with a 265 or 275/35-19 tire.
Yeah you may get a little, very minor rub on the front liner with the 35. It's so close I'm sure it would come down to tire brands and sizing. I have to be at full lock on winter 265/35's to rub just a hair, I have to try to hear it and it hasn't worn through the plastic at all. If I wasn't running a spacer it wouldn't rub the front liner at all. Those specs with a spacer are 19x9 265/35r19 et19. So with a 10" wheel it will be very close.

You should be well clear of the outside fender, the next and biggest concern would be the strut. I believe Active Auto's build had BC racing 18x10 et 35 square with a 275/35. In order for them to clear the strut with camber plates they used a 12mm spacer up front and the rear was fine. I believe they ran 2.3-2.5 degrees up front

I'm thinking anything in the 10" et 22-24 region is going to be perfect. The higher that offset the lower the chance you have of rubbing the front duct but you'll have a higher chance of running into strut issues. We probably have a 2-5mm margin for error running 19's with a 35 series sidewall.
