17X8's with 6" of backspacing will they fit my GTU

I know its probally been asked a thousand times but its a good deal..There just plain ole limited 5 spokes from a 80s turbo 300zx for 150 dollars..The front tires are shot so ill have to buy new ones probally a 215 or 225 and the rears are 245 wich will get drag radials in the future..I didnt have time to actually measure all the wheels and the 6" spec should fit my rear from what i remember of my 15X10s..

Id like to turn corners again with my car..Thanks for any help..I wish i has an ofset spec in mm's but i dont..

6" backspacing is too deep.&nbsp Stock 7" wide rims are 5" backspacing, so those 6" backspacing rims are going to hit the springs/suspension.
