I think they fit but you need a spacer because the offset is different

yes the offset is different. being that the 99-04 have more clearance. 99-04 have +24 offset and 05-08 have +34 offset. The lower the number the more clearance from your calipers and shock/struts you will have.

yeah they will fit, but they wil be way tucked under the body and wont line up with the fenders at all unless they get spacers for them

They fit like everyone said but they will look weird without spacers to correct for them.

At LEAST 1" bolt on wheel spacers. If you can get wider ones, it would be even better.
