Roger, I don't see why they won't fit. Mine are 7X16 with a 35mm offset, and 
I don't have any problems at all. At 38mm, they won't stick out quite as 
much, but will go inside a bit more. However, the factory BBS 16's were 8" 
wide, so you shouldn't have a problem. I'd trial fit them before mounting 
tires, though.
