Wheel Question

[GT Convertible]

Im looking at getting 17x10 Pony R rims for the rear of my 92 Convertible, but i was wondering if i will need to do any modifications for these to fit. I was also wondering if anyone has any pictures of these rims on their car. thanks in advance.

You'll need at least 6.5" backspacing, and you still might have to roll just the lip. I believe your rear fender is a "double panel" design, so you won't be able to fender roll the whole lip... just the small edge. I think you'll still rub.
I shortened my housing tubes because I didn't want to deal with this. I have a wider wheel on top of that also so...

Here are the stats for the wheels:

Diameter: 17 inch
Width: 10 inch
Finish: Chrome
Lugs: 4
Offset: +24 mm.
Backspacing: 6.4 in.
Bolt Circle: 4.25 in.

even with the offset, would i still have to roll the lip of the fender?
