Even if the width is 7.0", the +48 offset makes it impossible to fit up front (with stock type shocks).
Actually I have fit a 17x 7" with a 48ET and a 215 in the front just fine in the past, but there is no way a 225 would have cleared. With the 215 on a 7" wide with 48ET not even a pinky finger could fit between the tire and the stock placement shock/strut.

Update: I sent my pictures and such to Tirerack and they immediatly pulled kazeras off the website for 5 lug 2nd gens. They said there was an error somewhere along the line and theres no way they would have worked without tearing up the wheel. They are going to send me the package material to send it back and figure out what wheels will fit. Ill post pics at somepoint for yall to see what was up but ill have to do it when ive got more time.
