This might sound stupid,but how far should the wheels sit out under the guards,got some advanti vienna 17x7s,,look great,no idea what the offset is,,they came of a honda accord,,215 x 45 x 17 tyres,,they fit on good,, rubber doesnt hit or rub at that profile,,but they look to me like there sitting too far inside the guards,,the spokes are clearing the calipers by maybe 5mm on the front,,,i may need spacers to sit them out more,,any advice would be appreciated.

Don't forget that your brake pads will be worn down and the same wheels may not fit with new brake pads.
Mine barely clear the calipers with new pads on.
