Re: Will these Fit.

A 12" wide wheel with a 59mm offset calculates to about an 8-3/4"+ backspace. That would put the inner edge of the tire up against the LCA's and require that the inner fender liner and the subframe behind it be move over about 1/2" (mini-tubbed). You can gain a little clearance on the LCA's with a tubular LCA with rod ends and offset spacers to move them inwards in the factory mounting brackets.

This is the room available with a 7.93" backspace.... the 12" wheel would be in another 0.8".

Looking straight up from below, after hammering the inner fender liners:
