I was going to get these... Black Racing Pro-N1 with 38 offset.

Until these caught my eye... but not sure if it would rub on the inner side. Since they only come in 43 offset. They are also lighter than the one above.

Yeah they will fit. I have 17 x 7" wheels with a 38mm offset but they are flush with the fenders....those 8" wheels might stick out a bit.
 
The second ones are a nice knock-off of the Volk Gram Lights. I like those.
 
I would go with the 2nd choice. I was able to fit my Stealth RT/TT wheels (17x8.5 46mm offset) with minor minor rubbing on full lock turns with 245 45 17 tires. I think if you go with the 43 offset 8" wheels with a 235 or 225 tire they will be flush with the fenders and look absoultely sick!

We have a winner, with a 17x8 you will need at least a 43 mm offset and they will look just like this on a 1g

17x8 43 mm

Nice. Now it's a matter of the 3 month wait time for the suckers...
