i found some enkei rpf1 on ebay there about $1300 they ar 17" by 8" with a 45mm offset will these fit the my fto i have rolled the guards

cant say as ive not run that high an offset before but it sounds like it will be too close to the front struts and rear arms
will definately fit inside the guards though, if it were me id be putting some branded quality spacers between the hubs and wheels
