Will these wheels fit?

I have a set of wheels that are : 18x10.5 and 18x9.5 both with a 42 offset. Im worried that the offset may be too high. Should I get new wheels?

That offset is almost definitly too deep. I have a set of 17x9.0 +36mm offset wheels up front. They rub on the inside at full lock just barely. You can space the wheels out. Space them right and they will be just slightly past the fenders and would like nice and flush with say a 255 on them... But then you may as well go with a 9 inch wheel.

If you have them, just put them on and see if they rub. Turn the wheel to full lock BOTH SIDES and check for clearance. Do mind the the variable height of the car though ;)

The thing is, I have the wheels in a 18x7.5 size. I was planning to get them widened. So i want to make sure of the fit before I send them out.
