They should work fine, stock is around 35mm, and I think they will look nice, :thumb:

Kelly is really good at this, :nod:

38mm offset, will they be " in" more than stock?

Yeah, I think your right, as they are only a 6 inch wheel, or 6.5 in some cases.

The bigger the number, the further they sit in.

Personally, if they have them in a polished or painted finish, I'd opt for that. I've had a lot of experience with aftermarket chrome plated wheels where the plating lifts up where the bead of the tire seats, causing the chrome to peel, and the aluminum to corrode badly around the bead to the point where the tire will no longer seal.

If Chrome is the only option, then do NOT allow anyone to balance them with clip-on weights, not even on the back side. Tape weights ONLY.
