haha kazer is big balling lol these are 1/4 the price of his wheels he gets lol but im concerned with the offset/backspacing ... i think it will be good but i want to make sure before i order
 






i want them to stick out a little more than stock but obviously dont wanna rub
 






Considering how many different wheels he's put on in the past year alone, i'd say he's the best person to ask about it.
 






ive pm'd him but havent got a response yet
 






sorry man. like i said in the PM, the backspacing is high and the offset is yhe same as my 20s to give you an idea of how far they stick out. i say yes theyll fit. as far as tpms though, Ronin and Jwigs are better people to talk to as i don't have that option

here are pics of my cobras with almost 6" of backspacing

also forgot that the hub bore on those rims is slighty bigger. stock is 70.5mm

my MB Choas(17") rims were $105 a piece brand new, my cobra's(17") were $20 a rim, and my MB Bruzers(20") were $375 for 4 with tires :D
 












so i guess if i get some wheel spacers they'd fit ... what size do yall recommend?
