Those EC7 18" wheels fit over the PP brakes?
Yes. Though I don't have the PP brakes, I confirmed via email with APEX that even the 18x9 clears the brakes. The EC7 wheel design is meant to be a little heavier but have better rotor clearance.

Still having fun, this one at COTA a few weeks ago. 305/30-19 with Yokohama AD08's. Handling is great and these tires have actually lasted longer than I expected.

Paul, I would like another set of the hub rings, prefer aluminum but plastic will be ok too. I pull the wheels off a lot and I might break one at the worst time. Where can I buy a set?

Consider Apex 18" EC7 if track only. They clear and are light and strong with a very long track history durability wise.
You will se alot of 18" used at track days as the tires are $100 cheaper and it is very difficult to get a 19" tire wheel to weigh as little as an 18" tire wheel: assuming youc are about unsprung mass.

Also 19" 6G wheels are available to run square.

All these are with front spacers.

Not to worried about the price of tires, I get them at cost luckily. I'll be running ridetech coilovers, this will be my first time setting up a car for track days, sport bikes I've done before lol

I would like to thank everyone here for posting pics of their square set up's, it encouraged me to keep looking for mine, so many sweet rides. My last Mustang was a 2003 cobra with the 18" aftermarket cobra wheels back in 2003-04, such a fun car. So after many trucks since then, decided it was time again, forgot how much fun these things are. 20x10's squared with 275/35/20's & 1/4" spacers.
