i think it be a huge uphill battle to fit 8 in wide rims on a bg. if you can fid derbs bg, he has 15x7 +35 and the rims and almost inline with the guards.

15x7 +25 and 2.5 degrees of camber might get the look you are trying to achieve.

You'd possibly fit them in the rear but as project r said you'd need a lot if poke to not hit the suspension. Coilovers would help with inner clearance.
