Wheel Fitment Question

Would these fit?

http://www.dragwheels.com/product.asp?ID=23

I am told the offset is 45 and that they are actually 18"x7.5"

According to wheel max they would not fit, but I can't figure out why.

hmm... they should fit since your actually moving out. you'll get plenty more inner clearance.

The design doesn't look like they would it the calipers.

I run 18x7.5 with 45 offset no problem with 245 wide tires

thanks for the input, and I would much rather find 8 or 8.5's its just so hard to find what I am looking for with the 5 spoke /w rivets look. If anyone has any other ideas im certainly open to them.
