Default They will fit..

With a 43 offset it will sit in under your fenders more.Worst case scenario you can use some 5mm spacers to bring them out a little, but other than that you should be fine.If you don't mind me asking , how much for the wheels??

it will fit no problem, just that to me it's too conservative. i have 8.5 with 32 for your reference, so the wheels you looking at is a full 11mm more inset

btw, what's that lug pattern?! should it be 5 x 114 or something like that?

That will fit just fine, I have 35 offset on mine, so they are closer to the fender!

Default offset questions

if i am gettin 20x8.5 offset 42mm on my 97 sc will the wheels be out to the edge of the fenders more cause i was lookin at my factory wheels today and they just look funny with the skinny tires and being so far in the wheel well

thanks

the SC has even more aggressive fenders, so i think 42 might be too high
