Anyone have 19x9.5 wheels et 33 on LCI front.

19x9.5 et33 front. Can this work? Non sport suspension, stock height. I'm about to order wheels and really want the concave look, but dont want to make an expensive mistake. So if anyone has done this with success I would really be happy to hear from them. Otherwise Ill play it safe and go with 19x8.5 et40. Thanks.

No. It will hit the strut. You'll need at least a 5mm spacer.

I have KW coilovers. They're not bent. My 10" et25 front has 2mm more clearance and JUST clears by literally 1mm.
