Default Will These Wheels Fit?

Will a 18"x8" wheel with 5x4.5 bolt pattern, a 40mm offset, and 6" backspacing fit my S2K?

40mm offsets sounds awful. Stock width is 7.5 with 55 offset.... so you would be going 1 inch wider (1/2 inch inside and 1/2 inch ouside), but also moving the entire wheel out 15mm.......



so....basically you would be moving the outside lip of the wheel, out by over 1"... maybe if they are gold spoke wheels and you live in the city it would 'iet (is that how you say alright in the city?)




I don't have any idea what the bolt pattern is, so I cannot help you on those #'s, but the offsets clearly do not work.

The wheels will not fit without sticking out. You would need closer to 50mm offset on the 8" wheel.
