For spacers, either Mach Schnell if you prefer them black or H&R for silver - they are hidden behind the wheel, so you really can't see them, but the black ones do look pretty cool. Personally, I went with the H&R's only because I came across and ordered them first. If I had to do it over, I'd probably look real hard at price comparison and if close, go with the macht schnell ones. They also come with black bolts if you need longer ones.

Well, let's see...
My summer setup in front is 8,5" ET14, and compared to a 9,5" rim with ET24, there will be following differences:
- the 9,5" wheel extend 3mm more out --> no issues
- the 9,5" wheel will extend 23mm more in --> rubbing issues are very probable
So, I'm 90% sure the front wouldn't fit.

EDIT - My bad, hell praisethelowered who posted above has ordered 20x9.5 upfront. Like Anzafin is saying, guess it comes down to the offset. I'm no wheel expert so I'll withdraw from this conversation.
