What size are they? I can give you a estimate of what the offset should be.

Woah woah...offset is distance from its hub mounting surface to the centerline of the wheel. Your talking about lug pattern, its 4X114.3

To clear Z32s, its not only on the offset but also the wheel style. Im thinking 32+ or lower can clear em.

Like hyjnx pointed out it's the wheel style or spoke design that plays a pivotal role in clearing z32 calipers. I have a set of watanabe's with an offset of 22 that will not clear the calipers unless I run longer wheel studs and a thick spacer.

Yea, most companies inform you that that wheel design will clear big brakes or not
