In the lower offsets they do.

And mine are 18x8, and weigh 17.6/8lbs depending where you get the info.

pics on car, its fairly flush. wheels are +48 with 19mm adapters









i had to put my ssc springs on the rear because i was worried the b&gs would lower the rear right on the tire. should i worry about that with 29 offset? i have an lt and rear drums, so idk if thats a factor
