Done! FWIW I adore the EC-7R, but would prefer if I could get it a bit narrower than 9in.

I said the same. Give me that same front profile and look, just take an inch off the back.

We love the EC-7R and will definitely consider it for the near future. I personally run the 17x9.5 ET40 EC-7R in bronze on my car

I'd probably buy a couple sets of those wheels pictured.

No surprise there. SM10's are a real gem, especially in the fitments that allow the spokes to have more curvature. Fingers crossed for a 18x10

I have to agree with you on that! The deeper profile would look perfect on the 86.
