Still trying to decide........
Will a 9.5 et33 fit up front? According to the calculator they will only extend out 6mm further than the 124's, but gives you 32mm less clearance on the inside.
Is there enough room for that? Other option for the wheel i'm looking at is 8.5 et15, but that extends out 11mm further than the front 124's. Is that too much? I want them to be flush or slightly recessed/ tucked on the front. Def don't want them sticking out!
For the rear, I think I've decided to go with a 19x11 et33 which extends an extra 9mm over the 124's with the 15mm spacer.

Any pics of your 8.5 et14 fitment? I was just a little concerned that an extension of 11mm over the 124 fronts would stick out to far
