Default lowest offset rim fitment

a local guy wants to buy my torqlite rims.. the problem is the offset is 0... i know this is about 45mm too low, but has anyone tried an offset similar yet?

17x8 stock is a 45mm offset.
You say the 18x8s are 0mm offset.
45 divided by 25.4 = 1.77" that
they will stick out past where
the OEM 17X8" rim does now.

Yea I got a real good deal on some size 13 1/2 NIKE Air Jordans NIB.
Too bad I wear a size 10 1/2. I have to wear 6 pairs of socks
just so they will stay on my feet. But they sure look cool until
you take a real close look from straight on.
