The wheels are 17-inch in diameter and 8 inches wide with a +45 offset up front, and 17-inch by 9 inches at +45 in the rear.

A +45 offset on a 8-inch wide wheel puts the wheel face in a conservative, factory-like position. Lower offset moves the wheel outward; higher offset tucks it in. The rear +45 offset on the 9-inch wheel keeps the rear in line with the front.
