From what I understand the wheels have to have at least a +45mm offset... so that the wheels don't stick out. Just wait for the experts to post comments

With an 8" wide wheel, you need to be at least +48 offset (+50 is ideal) to fit without rubbing.

How wide is the wheel?

Unless it's a 7" wide wheel, you're gonna rub if you drop the car.
