We need the wheel width and offset to determine if they will fit. I think you may be confusing wheel offset with a spacer.

A 8" +44 front should clear according to this post:


"No spacers needed with plenty of clearance"

Volk RE30
17x8+44

I agree. Just to clarify, that is not my car. I found that in the Spoon caliper fitment thread in the wheel/tire forum. Cassidey, you should check with the previous owner to get the exact wheel specs if possible.
