    You'd want to check the offset, the hub bore, and make sure they are 4x114.3. If all those things check out, you SHOULD be fine.

    And your English is fine. Much better than some I've seen on here.

        I don't konw if it matters for you, but I'm sure that will stick out past the fender. Not by much, maybe an inch.
        I have 8in wide wheels with +38 offset. It's exactly as wide as the fender arch and I think I'll need to roll my fender when I lower the car.

        Do you plan on having a lot of negative camber? That will help with clearance on the rear.

          Seems to be a bit wide. The offset isnt too bad but with the wheel width you are looking at it sticking out a little bit.

              I don't know about your specs, but I can tell you mine, and maybe that will give you an idea.

              Rear Set-Up

              1.8" - 1.9" lowered
              17x7 +35 Offset
              Rolled Fenders
              IIRC, about -1.5 Degrees of camber

              With that, I have a gap between the fender and wheel of about a little less than an inch. I can comfortably stick my fingers between the gap.

              8.5 might bring you out to rubbing. 8 might be okay.

                No, i dont want to mess with the camber, dont like the looks of it, maybe i can do little work on the fenders, tks for help man.

                My consern its the inner side, maybe will touch the suspension and brakes components? , tks for help.

                8inch with +45 offset will plug and play, but this messures its hard to find here in Brazil, thats why i am chossing this others , because its very easy to find and cheaper, tks for help man.

                  no problem

                  you'll have to do some fender work most likely then, if you don't want to run negative camber to fit the wheels (which is smart, because too much negative camber starts to sacrifice performance for style). Only way to find out how much you'll have to do is get them and put them on, lower your car and load your car up with junk to get an idea of where you'll have issues with clearance

                  +32 offset... 8.5...

                  just guesstimating (don't exactly know how rim dimensions work out), but 1.5 inches wider than my rim, so half on each side... .75" added. 3mm added due to offset...

                  ^take all these calculations with a grain of salt, I really don't know how rim dimensions are, I'm kinda just doing some arbitrary math.

                  with a fender roll you might be very close. you might need to pull your fender out though, I'm imagining your rims on my car and I think i'd be hitting the fender with the edge of the tire a bit.

                    Yeah, neither do I

                    I think you should be ok. Most of that extra width will be on the outside because of the low offset. I think it'll be just under an inch wider on the inside.

                    Check out this website, it helped me out a lot.

                      The only time you might rub is when turning the wheel a far as it can go. Otherwise, you should be fine. Especially if you aren't lowering the car more than 1". If there is any contact with suspension components, you could always use a small spacer (though I doubt it will be necessary.)

                      And yes, your English is fine. I wish half the members from the US could be so easy to understand!

                            +32 will fit, but you will have to roll the rear fenders
