Appears to be RWD offsets so it should fit fine with no probs.
For 6.5" wide, an ideal offset would be more 12-18.
Also ensure that the PCD is correct - Sprinter's are 114.3 but other cars are 100.

yeah dude pcd is correct, i tested the rays on the front with 205/55/15's and i could hardly turn the wheel and they would rub!
Do u know which wheels i should put on the front?? as there offsets are different!!
My friend said the rays with the +8 offset is better suited for the front, but i just wanna double check that!!
thanx for the help

Ryan , you been to Box Hill have you ?
I think people will need a bit more information to solve your problem .
1. What is the height of the vehicle ?
2. camber / Castor setting ?
3. front end set up ? which struts / lower control arms ?
4. have you cut the inner guard just above the bumper mount ?
5. have you filed the bumper to guard mount area near the screw ?
6. is the tyre rubbing on the caster rod ?
7. or the inner guard ?
8. ask Hirogen for the ae86 workshops phone number in Box Hill .
9. no number nine ... yet

well car setup is totaly stock suspension wise!!!
I asked mike, but he didnt seem to know about offsets and stuff..
I just really need to know what pair of wheels is best suited for front/back of the car taking the offset into consideration!!
Like if you have the same wheels 2 with +8 offset and 2 with +6, what wheels would you put on the front?? back??
cheers

its rubbing where the inner guard is next to the mudflap..
I think its because the tyres are to big, he(suki) told me to use 195/50/15 up front, but i dont have them to test and c if they rub! All i know is that they rub with the 205/55/15. But i think it will miss with the lower profile tyres!
i have to find a place that will let me test a tyre to c if it rubs!! 
thanks for the help!!
