Questions about wheel and tire fitment

Hey guys, I have decided on Apex FL-5 wheels and was wondering if anyone is running square 235/40-18 tires without having to do any negative camber, ie completely stock. Please let me know. Thanks.
EDIT: FL-5 are 18x8.5" ET35 wheels

I have the exact same wheels and posted a thread in this exact same forum (lol) and the consensus seems to be that 235 will be tight but should be a direct fit on stock suspension: https://www.2addicts.com/forums/show....php?t=1779217

If you're lowered then I'm not sure. I won't be mounting the wheels for another few months and still haven't decided which tires to start with but I'll update the thread when I do. Kind of changed my mind and now leaning towards a simple 225 square setup to start with just so I can guarantee fitment, then once I have the 225s mounted I can take some measurements and see how much room I have to play with. 235s all around should be fine though at stock ride height.

I'm just installed EC-7 et45 with a 5mm spacer up front on 235/40s. It's damn close. Lol.

I'm also on bilstein b14s. No camber adjustments.

Did you check the Apex fitment guide? That helped me a lot. I also confirmed with Apex on fitment. They were super responsive.
