It will depend on which one you get. I suggest searching for a brand(spoon, willwood, endless,etc) in the classified and usually the person will list bunch of offsets or wheels that fit.

Or check out the official bbk thread in the gallery.

I have xd9 17x7.5+50 and I had to put 15mm spacers in the front to fit the rotora. If you are going w/ xd9, I suggest getting 17x7.5+42(will need spacers) or 17x8.5+42.

Good luck!

The offset alone is not going to tell you if a wheel is going to clear. The shape of the spokes will also come into play. You are going to have to look at the wheels and brakes individually.
