wanofakind01 is running V3’s with 255/35 RE-71R with no issues and the math says a 5mm spacer would be enough for a 265/30 to clear if the V3’s and MPS are the same size.

If it clears statically with a couple mm to spare, it should be good dynamically. Sidewall deflection isn’t a concern on the topside of the tire where it would rub the strut.

Used 7.5mm turner spacers at my last trackday.

No rubbing on the fender or the spring collar. I'm going to stick with 7.5's to get a little extra space on the inside.
