Default PICS? rubbing issues c5z 18x10.5 on all corners c5

Ive read and havent got a clear pic or found a thread that shows me how far the 18x10.5 c5z speedlines (no repros) rub or stick out from the front fender with a 315 tire. Any rubbing issues at full turn? Or control arm issues as the backspace of a factory rear c5z rim is i believe just over 8".

I have the front brake ducts off as i am thinking of running a 315/30/18 tire all around but curious from the guys have ran this setup currently or in the past what issues i will encounter.
I do have c6z brakes on my frc. And this is strictly for recreational purposes 1-2x a year with an extra set of factory speedlines.

Thanks in advance for the help and pics are greatly appreciated.

Pic is of my current street driven set up
275/35/19 f. 315/35/20r invos

Yup, hundreds of C5s have run a 315 setup on Speedlines. They stick out a little bit in the front depending on your camber. And yes, you can rub the brake ducts at full lock, but on track steering angles are fine.
