I Know I Shouldn't Ask This But...; Would these wheels fit?

I've just come into the custody of some 17x8 fronts and 17x9 rears 38+ offset I believe, with 235s on the front and 255s on the rear.

Will these fit?

If not what will I need to do to make them fit?

Don't mind rolling guards etc etc... but don't want to use spacers if I can help it.

Cheers guys!!

17x8 +38 with 235 is spot on at the front with not much rolling but 17x9 +38, you will need 215 or 225 with rolling and pulling.

IMO 17x8 +30 all round is ideal.

Cheers for that!

Have to wait to get my car back to give them a go anyway :(

My biggest worry was hitting the suspension but you think that'll be all fine?

I'll be more worried with hitting the guard and letting your wheel roll them by itself...I've seen nasty damages on fenders because the wheels were to wide.

If they can't fit because of the guard I'll be making the guards wider, can't move the suspension :P

I ran teh exact same setup on my car, but Reggie is right 255's are kinda too wide, definately have to have rear guards rolled and pulled slightly if you wanna run 255's
