9.5" front, 10" rear wheels

Was wondering if anyone is running a 9.5" front with a 10" rear wheel.

Basically the 10.5" ET22 rear wheels are out of stock, so I was looking at:

Front: Apex EC-7 19x9.5" (ET22)
Rear: Apex EC-7 19x10" (ET25) with a spacer but no clue what size

My tires I currently have and would plan on running are 255/35 front and 275/35 rear.

Will having a 0.5 inch staggered offset ruin the feel of the car? Or should I just wait until the 10.5" rears come in stock so it maintains the 1.0 inch?

Thanks in advance!

Every E92 GT4 ran that setup, basically, in 18", so you'll be aight. Nice thing about the 10's is you get a little rim protection with most 275's

buy now!

If I ran this, would a 3 or 5mm spacer be more acceptable? I tried researching (with a 9.5" wheel up front) but came up with nothing.

Or should go with a 12? I have no clue

I’m pretty low. Wouldn’t I have to roll rears for that tire?
