I thought ET45 on a 9” front would be ok once lowered as this is still further from the strut than the 18x9.5 ET40 (and similar to an 18x9.5 ET38 which seems quite common), but offers quite a bit less poke. Many of the 18x9.5 ET38/40 listed in the meaty tyres thread have 255/265s fitted to the front, so I assumed I’d be ok with a 245/35.
Sounds like I might need to do a bit more research based on the above - I’ll ditch the ET47 option at least. My other option is to fit 8.5s to the front, but I’d really prefer not to stagger.

I think you would be okay with ET45 on a 9" wheel it will fit with coilovers no problem, so if you like that look that would work. Yep with coilovers ive seen people fit 18x9.5 +45 wheels as well.
Yeah i cant recommend staggering on this platform. Yeah the ET47 is just too high i think ET45 or less would be the best option for you. Also, i would still suggest getting your wheels after you get your coilovers installed. Good luck on your search!
