I didn't bother to look it up, but I'm almost positive you're going to rub in front. That's even if the offsets are perfect. Speaking of which, it doesn't list offsets.

Really, though, there's just no need to go that big. Unless you're running a massive turbo, and trying to put 500hp to the ground, that's just unnecessary.

I agree with mmsadda, they might rub. What i have notice here on the fourm is that get 17 x 8 or 7 in the front and 17 x 9 with +35 offset. They are flush with the fenders and dont need spacers. If you want it to look good and not rub look around some more.

Here is a example. I belive they have 5 lug also. There is a other ebay store that has them also. Not sure of the link at the moment.

Front 17 x 9" - 24mm / Rear 17 x 10.5" - 27mm

I really like the first set of rims but if there is NO WAY to make them fit i may consider the others, i just dont like the other set as much...
