    i think they're a little high on the offset. They's look a little sunk in. if you're sold on them though, they'd do fine with some spacers. If you look at my truck, mine are 7"wide, +35, i find with 7", +35 or +37 is where you want to be. My fronts are on 8mm spacers, so if you look at them, that's technically +28. My rears don't have spacers (yet) so they can give you the best reference to mounting depth. Remember that diff. between those rims (+42), and mine (+35), is 8mm, which is 5/16". Now think about how my rears look maunted, and push them in another 5/16".

    Spacers aren't taboo anymore if you play it safe, some other guys might have better info on those if you're set on those rims.

    I'm some 17x7s with a 38 offset and they fit perfect.

    They're from a mid 2000's Lexus RX350, I love the way that they look on my truck. Tires are Continental Extreme Contact DWS 215/40-18's

    Did you have to bore the center out a bit?

    Yes i did. Those Lexus rims are lug centric, so for some reason they either have a really small hub, or none at all. So bore it out to 67.1 mm basically 2.64 inches. It was a little difficult to find a place to do it, and when i did it was 40 bucks a pop. worth it though. Also, lug centric meant i had to get different lugs, if you can find some rims that are hub centric, i would suggest going that route, it's a lot easier to find and purchase lugs.

    Kinda a crappy pic but these are 18x8 +42 on my bagged truck, you can see how far they sink in. All I'd need is spacers and they would be legit. Id say if your getting a good deal on those wheels then get them and just buy spacers.

    I'll sell you the rims on my truck in the pic above but I can assume it would cost more in shipping than what Id sell the rims for to begin with hahah
