17" wheels with spacers?
I have a chance to get a very inexpensive 17"x7" wheel set with +42 backspacing.
I see adaptors available,but the question is will these fit my 08 fortwo with no suspension mods.If so what size spacer? Also I will be looking for tire size recomendations. I am new to smarts.

Is bolt circle 5x112?

If not, adapters won't work.

Just to help me understand, why would this wheel not work with an adaptor because of the bolt circle?
