did you buy them used? those are the wrong fitment. They will not clear the calipers and if you put enought spacers to clear the calipers then it wont clear the fender. did you read the link above? you need the 20 offset version. the issue is not just the offset. the dish is far less concave on that version. i would exchange them for the correct wheels even if there is restocking fees invovled.

Yeah I got them used. So you're saying if I put a 15mm spacer on the front to make it the same as the +20version it still won't work cause the concave is less? The tires on these are 235 40 18. Reason I got these is the deal was great and I blew a tire on my stockers and got these with Almost new tires for just about same as it would have cost me to get tires. I really like these rims and knew going in the 35 version wouldn't work and just planned on doing the spacers

well, to clear the front calipers you will have to put at least 1" spacer in the front but then with the 40 series tires, it will very likely rub the inside of the fenders when you turn the wheel.

I would very highly recommend selling them rather than wasting money on spacers, etc. and get 35 series tires next time as well.

Federal 595 tires are $115

this is absolutely wrong. Just buy 2 pairs of ichiba 15mm v2 spacers. Grind down the studs on the hub to be flush with the spacer and torque the lug nuts to 80 ft lbs. Also get some nylon hub rings so the wheel can be hubcentrc.

Was the 15mm enough on your rims. Yeah I got the hubrings in the mail probably in a couple days already.

Yes, 15mm was more than enough to adequately clear the front calipers.
