2004 MCS wheel offset

Anyone know the stock wheel offset for a 2004 MCS R53. 42mm keeps popping up in my head but I 'm not sure.

Offset for 2004 OEM R85 (S-Lites) is +48mm (read as ET48)

Note: I just mounted a set of Rota RBs with an offset of +40 and they fit perfectly.

I believe the 17" RB came with et45. I'm running mines with 215/40/17 tires and a 5mm spacer so yeah it'll fit.

Mine are +40. In looking around for them, I found many different offsets in the 17" 4X100 bolt pattern.
