Question about rim backspacing

hey guys i found a really good deal on a set of focal 17" rims, like a really good deal. they came off an eclipse, and im wondering if they would fit on the car without spacers, i would eventually get them but not right now.

you would need to know the offset and width of the wheels

"28mm" cannot be backspacing.
I believe "+28mm" is the offset.

7.0", +28 offset will fit on an FC...as long as it's 5-bolt (assuming you're running 5-bolt hubs also).
