The 10" wheel will give a little better sidewall support for the 275/40/17 in comparison to the 9.5" wheel, which can be beneficial on road courses. The 275/40/17 on the 17x9.5" ET35 is definitely the easier fit which is why it's so well known, as it doesn't require much work for the wheel to fit on the e9x.
