well there is a wheel offset calculator that i'll post a link to, but it all depends on your factory offset.

get the measuring tape out and check these sites. these sites are really helpful. to figure out your wheels check this site:

http://www.rimsntires.com/specs.jsp

and because that site doesn't do stretched tires use this one to see where your tires will sit:

Check out RimTuck too. It's a great database for all kinds of different cars showing what different wheel setups will look like.
