Default SSR rims on ebay, offset ok?

All,
I need to help with offsets. I have a 2007 S2k and love the SSR SP1/Work S1 rims. I found these on ebay but need to help to know if these will fit my vehicle. My car is unmodified, completely stock:

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/SSR-wheel-S...1QQcmdZViewItem

4 SSR SP1, color (SBC). The front wheels are 17x8 +37offset, the rear wheels are 17x9 +37offset.

Please let me know.

Thanks,
Christopher

those are really aggressive offsets...your going to have to stretch your tires, roll and pull you fenders, and dial in negative camber

AP2,
I'm still learning about offsets, I know the stock offsets are +55 front, +65 rear but almost no one makes this stagger exactly. Can you recommend how far I can deviate from this safefully?

Without doin any mod's to get them to fit, as a general rule you can go about +48 in the front and +50 in the rear. Depending on the wheel and tire you choose, you might be able to go just a little bit less than that.

Chris, the setup you linked will work but I suggest you run 245 tires in the rear. set you car up with the european alignment and it will tuck the wheels in enough to be flush with the fender. I do suggest rolling the rear fender but it does not need to be pulled. This setup also depends on how low your car is.

those are very moderate offsets, but is very do-able on modded fenders. 245/15/Roll/-Camber

Easy

BTW, black chome is hot!
