Default Would this offset fit 2wd Sapphire Cosworth

Hi im not up to speed with wheel offsets so looking for a bit of advice. I want a set of Rota D154's for my 2wd Sapphire Cosworth but the only size they can provide is 17x8.0 4x108 ET42.

Now my question is will these go straight on without any issues and more importantly will the car sit nicely?

Cheers in advance

That's too big an offset for a sapphire but you could always use spacers to bring the et down to around 35 ish

Get the longest extended nuts and 15mm spacers and it should be ok. Same specs my Fifteen52s are.
