Me too (which is very rare for non-OEM): I like the curvaceousness of them - does the curve of the "spokes" mean that the curved part protrudes further out than the rim/tyre, or do they not curve out that much?

Firstly, re suspension clearance, you have plenty of room for the rim:

There's even more at the back. You'll run in to tyre clearance issues with the rear arch liner before the suspension. You definitely would have contact issues with tyres that sit square on 9.5s though so some stretch is going to be inevitable for this to work.

MJ, cast your mind back a bit. In this picture with the ruler, can you remember what size wheel/tyre combo was used?
