Usually people want no less than a +38 offset. But being a 7.5 inch wheel it may be okay. I'd just hate to run a wheel smaller than our stock wheel. Talk about wheel spin. Lol.

thats a great point , why run a 7.5 inch wheel ? you`ll be running what ? 235 tires or something..

It might be overkill for a V6 but I actually run 10.5 inches in the back , these cars look good with serious meat in the back , I hated the skinny look of the wheels with the stock 16`s .. Also looks like you have a boosted car OP ? you should look into some serious tires imo..

A 7.5" wide wheel with a 38mm offset will tuck in pretty far - in fact a 0 offset would be better. You'd probably want a 1"-1.25" spacer/adapter
