No hard confirmation so far... I glanced at the booklet at a local wheel shop and it says +45. I am looking for wheels for my 99 but I believe 93-97 have same specs for wheels. Real hard to find a match I'm telling ya.

I have only seen +47 for 17" wheels. If that's what you're looking at, it will stick out AND run VERY close to the strut... you risk rubbing.

Agreed. But I'm saying that I have not seen +47 offset on less than 17" wheels - which are usually 7" wide minimum. With +47 offset that thing will rub the suspension AND stick out by 2cm - may become noticeable.

+47 will definately hit the suspension. I got +45 on my 14" steelies and if i drop to full compression on a dirt road i either rub or burst a tyre. It's happened twice in the last 3 rally expiditions i have done.
