Hi, thanks again for helping, really appreciated.
I still don't have the car, it's been delayed and now I'm supposed to receive it mid-April.
I went with 323 wheels (8x18 ET 30 front and 9x18 ET 41 rear). I will be using them with winter tyres (235/45 front and 265/40 rear).
For the summer wheels, I'd like to go with APEX wheels (I've had three different sets on my 135 with great satisfaction, they are strong and light) and I might stay with 18" because as much as I like your big wheels, I also like when the tire looks beefy. So from your experience, it sounds that 9.5"ET33 would fit perfectly (only 2mm more on the outside) at the rear. I am still unsure about the front wheel, but APEX has two options, one 8.5ET35 which will fot for sure, and one 8.5ET20 which is 16mm more on the outside and that might be too agressive but the concavity of the wheel is nice.
I'll test on my stock wheels with several spacers to confirm look is ok as well as no rubbing especially because I'll be running lower on KW V1 suspensions.
Cheers.
