Question Will these wheels work?

Right now I have the stock evo 9 enkei wheels which are a 17x8 with a 5x114.3 bolt pattern and a +38 (I believe) offset. I am a noob to wheels and was wondering if these TSW's will fit? http://www.tsw.com/alloy_wheels_valencia_5.php
They are 17x8 with a 5x114.3 bolt pattern except they have a +20 offset.
I am running a 24545zr17.
Thanks!

Try searching the fitment guide to see if anyone has that same size. Then you can PM them about specific fitment questions/issues.

The answer all depends on whether you have 18mm to spare.

I would worry about clearing the front brakes. It really makes no sence to get another set of rims that are the same size but are heavier. Imo, and if you are fetting them for looks 18would look better...just my opinon though. Good luck

For the wheels he wants, shouldn't he be worried about clearance of the fender well and not the brakes?

go wide to begin with or you will hate yourself in a year or so when you want wider rims and tires!
