Checkmate Wheel offset

Hi guys, I just purchased an 06 Checkmate and was wondering what the stock wheel offset may be. Is it et50? The car is lowered on eibach springs right now and I'm considering getting spacers to widen the stance and fill out the wheel well while I save up for some aftermarket wheels. Thanks in advance.

If they're 48 offset, then they match the R99s I just put on my car. I'm running a set of 5mm spacers behind them, and they sit really nicely in the fenders - not too far in or out. And, with only 5mm, the center bore still engages the hub solidly.
