Default Got some work equips on the way!

I got some work equips coming in and im worried about the fitment.
The offset seems too high, so.... will they fit? rubbing issues?
The car is sitting on stock suspension.

5x114.3
17x7 +35 offset
17x8.5 + 20 offset

they are these equips (just in case if it matters)



Any feedback is appreciated!!!

Those wheels won't fit.

Offsets way too LOW, not too high.

Rears are going to stick out about an inch. Fronts would probably be workable with rolling the fender lips and camber and 205s, but those rears, I don't think so...

Check out the wheel fitment guide stickie in this forum.

depends on how much mods you want to run to make those fit.

roll fenders and run some camber and you can make it work.

You would have to do more than roll the fenders with a 20mm offset.

I've noticed an alarming trend of S2k guys buying outrageous offsets on skinny wheels that force them to do major work to their fenders. Why don't they focus on getting wide wheels that ACTUALLY fit?? Do some research and get wheels with the correct offset.

These wheels aren't even "maybe a little work" type of wheels. You'll have to do major fender rolling and pulling to get these right.

...sorry, i know i sound negative
