According to Tirerack, they show a 45MM offset, so with the wheels you're looking at, you would want a 10MM or 3/8" wheel spacer also.

You are correct, next time I comment on a post, I will do my best to make sure I've had at least 2 cups of coffee.
Disclaimer: I'm not the smartest when it comes to wheel offset.
That being said, it will bring the wheel out 10MM, the tire you decide, if going larger width or diameter might rub at full lock.

All the specs line up to fit a Maverick.Has anyone used these wheels or specs?
Offset is only 3mm from stock (poke out).
Just need a hub ring to adapt from 73.1 to 63.4.
I know from my days of searching tire/wheel threads,
quite a few folks used 18x8.5 to 20x8.5.
I'd love to see that wheel on a Maverick.
Are there any aftermarket wheels that essentially fit like stock without need for spacers or centering rings? Or will pretty much anything aftermarket need the extra do-dads to mount it? I'd like to get some 17" bronze wheels with snows mounted for my Eruption Green machine.
I had a nice shudder on my old car after having a fuel line replaced until I figured out they removed a tire and didn't put the centering ring back on

You do not need centering rings. I don't have them on my 1,000hp Mustang.
Many wheels do not need spacers either. These wheels might stick out too far (Poke), being that they are 1.5" wider than stock. That is what I'm trying to figure out.

Well I saw similar offset (32+ instead of 25mm) 18x8.5 wheels used on Mavs, so I pulled the trigger in these. 18x8.5 25mm is basically a Mach E size. Will post pics once mounted in a couple weeks. Going with 235/65/18 Tires.

They should look really good
You don't NEED centering rings but it's highly recommended to get them to prevent vibration issues. There's a reason wheels are machined to fit tight on the hub, it's to center them properly. Bolts aren't there to center the wheel
I love that reasoning though, it's like saying "10,000 horsepower top fuel racers don't have lights or a suspension, so you don't need them on your car either!"
(but you might need parachutes? 
)
