Yes, that will fit easy
45+ is a nominal offset, same as the stock rims.
A 16x8 45 offset would also fit

Re: +45 offset
With the higher offset rims just make sure you factor in tire size too. If you run a wide rim with a high offset wider tires will rub your strut. If you stay within stockish tire sizes you should be fine.

Re: +45 offset
the only way lowering will affect it if it clears the strut is if you have really negative camber since the strut does not move... lowering may also affect if it clears the fender or not...shadowmx3 wrote:Cool! what if ya drop the car with H&R spring would it still clear the strut?

Re: +45 offset
Hmmm would the +35 offset one make the rim stick out the fender line? I dont want it to look like a dam lowrider n dont want to buy another set of rim to try to sell it off like the 17X7 drag dr2 rim i got. I like how it +40 offset sit like in the middle thou, but too dam heavy.
Thank you for replies everyone.
