yes the endless will fit with aftermarket rims, depending which ones you get and which offsets... i'd recommend contacting ASMSpec - https://www.s2ki.com/forums/index.php?showuser=4621

he seems to be pretty knowledgeable with the endless calipers having first hand experience. in an older thread he listed these wheels clearing the endless with no spacers

Racing Hart CPFtuner
17x7.5 +43
17x8.5 Forgot the rear offset

SSR GT7 (SCCA Spec)
17x7.5 +50
17x8.5 +63

If you don't change to longer studs, the thicker the spacer, the less threading you have for the lug nuts to screw in; which means the wheels will have a bigger chance of falling off. Yes it will happen and it did to my friend a few weeks ago.
He should have known better, but he still did it anyways and it was funny.
