      lol

      OP, do this. Search for pics of qimis' car. He had 16x10, ET-3 or so. Take a look at how much his fenders are flared out, with fibreglass no less. No imagine your wheels, half an inch FURTHER out.

      Should be fun.

                So you got a 5 inch back spacing for the front?
                What series did you buy?

                  no a 5" backspace would be -25 i really got a -15 but i have to add a 5mm space to clear the caliper so the wheel comes out as far as a -20 would.
                  Here is how the car looks

                      isn't et0 the middle of the barrel? And if the wheel is 8" shouldn't the middle be 4"?
                      i'm probably wrong tho lol

                        I was wrong I admit it.
                        Anyways a 4.5 inch back spacing is 0.
                        Either way your going to have to roll the fuck out of your fenders like shown above.
                        if you dont mind then yes they will fit.
