17x8 Cobra R wheels on SVT Focus

Hey guys, I love the look of the 95 cobra r wheels on the svt focus. I've seen it done with 17x9 and having to do some trimming and rolling of the fenders. If I get a set of 4 lug cobra r wheels 17x8, would I have any clearence issues? Any info is appreciated

Yes you will have clearance issues unless you can find a set with 35 or higher offset.

Those wheels would look killer w/ the Baer track kit on too.
