Those will stick out farther than the 3.358. But yes they will work. Might rub a little depending on what size tire your going with.

According to MT's website, the 15x8 class IIs with 5x4.5 pattern only come in 3 5/16 backspacing which is 3.3125. With 3 5/16 they'll stick out a little more but you'll be fine on tire clearance. Worst case you do a little trimming so the fronts dont rub at full lock.

Mis-communication between the seller and I. Glad they didn't end up being the locks cuz I really don't like them as much as the plain Classics.
