Thinking of going squared

Currently on staggered 193m with 12.5mm spacers and stock msport suspension. I'd like to go square with 18x9.5 193's all-around. Anybody see any problems with this?

Are you on the wrong forum? Or is your year just labeled wrong? 2013 should make you an F-series. Should go there and have them answer this. I think its going to be close, but probably fine. That said, the experts are here:

Let me ask this another way. Will the 193m 18x9.5 fit on the front without any issues?

Well, to start, the style 193 wheels are 18x8 and 18x8.5, front and rear.

Beyond that, comparing the 8" front to the rear 8.5", and their offsets, the 8.5" will sit 9.3mm closer to the strut and will poke 3.3mm more than the 8". With that, you could run into an issue with contact on the strut, but tire choice might remedy it. Also, since many people run spacers on the front and have no issues with rubbing on the fender, you can safely assume that a spacer of around 10mm will make sure it clears the strut and the fender. With that, do some research on what thickness spacers work on the front and stay hub centric.

All of this is easy to find on your own with a little research and math, or just a wheel size/offset calculator found all over the internet. Try Will They Fit . com.
