It largely depends on the overall design of the wheel. However, offset is a large factor, too. What's the offset?

before you do any planning on buying rims, did you happen to send my rod and piston. If not just wire me my money back. call me at 513.257.8173 if there's a problem

No one is going to be able to give you a 100% definate answer. You can only put them on and see.
