Default Wheel Offset Question...Please help!

I actually have an 06 Mitsubishi Raider 4WD, however the Raider forums suck, and since the cars are pretty much the same, I thought I would ask here. My truck came with BF All Terrains, so I've decided to just replace the stock 16" rims. I have found rims on ebay (16x8 5-139.7 (5x5.5") ET12), but the offset is +12mm offset, and the info that I've have found show the stock rims at a +20mm offset. Here's the link to the wheels http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&rd=1&item=150189788 355&ssPageName=STRK:MEWA:IT&ih=005.

Will the 8MM difference cause any problems? Thanks.

They will sit 8mm further to the outside. (about 1/4 inch) I have seen wheels with offsets in that range fit your truck. Check to be sure the centerbore is the right size, and that it will clear the brakes, but it seems to be in a reasonable range if you do not mind widening your track slightly.
