Apparently the center cap won't go on in the front with the 9.5" -- check the link -- I think Niz did a test fit -- I want to say the center cap was the only issue -- some suggest that could be fixed with a spacer. I'm a little leery of spacers, and everything else that's mostly for appearance -- there may be a slight increase in grip, but not as much of a difference as a good set of tires.
You can also tap in the dust cap with a hammer and gain the clearance needed. I wouldn't sweat a 5mm hubcentric spacer. It's not like you're adding an inch.

I was thinking the fronts could use spacers, but haven't measured it yet to see if it looks the same as the rears or funky

Now I'm considering them also. Really light, inexpensive. I think I'd like to run a square 19x9.5 +40 with 275/40's. I can't imagine that'd be a problem.
Do it, they're so light, the steering is so immediate that it almost makes me feel the steering with the stock wheels had lag lol. Car over all feels more responsive and those fire hawks grip very well.

Hmmm. I wonder if you can run a squared set up...Seems like you could with the offset they have.
Its been done, needs a small 3 mm spacer upfront but easily works.
