Default RE: rims wont fit

The width is'nt the issue, the offset is. the fourth gens use what I call a front wheel drive offset where the hub flang is very close to the outside of the rim. your 92 uses a rear wheel drive offset which locates the hub flang closer to the rims centerline.I highly doubt you can make them fit and be safe to drive. No one manufactures a spacer large enough to give you the backspacing you need because it's not safe.
