Are these good drag wheels?

18x10.5, +58 offset with a 8 mm spacer . A guy is selling them locally for pretty cheap but don't know if they're any good

Well, you didn't tell us what brand of wheels they are!??!? From the sizes/offsets, I would guess you're looking at Corvette wheels or Corvette replica wheels. If that is the case, they would probably be better than trying to drag race on factory 20's, but me personally, I don't like racing with spacers. Plus, that 8mm spacer puts you right on the edge of needing longer studs. If I were you, I'd keep shopping. Find some 18x9.5 +40, and they're fit much better….without spacers. Just my .02 cents.

+1 58mm needs spacers whereas +40mm C6 fronts fit without spacers.

8mm spacer to me is too much to run with stock lugs.
