    They will not fit. You can use spacers to fit them.

    Default The rears should fit

    From memory, the M-coupe/roadster used 17x9 rear wheels with a 26mm offset. The fronts would probably require big spacers (~20mm). The only good news about the large spacers is that they shouldn't shimmy because they have a "surrogate hub" built in.

    You got it backward. The fronts will probably require spacers; the rears should be fine. Find out what the offsets are, then you'll know whether they'll fit.
