They could be from OEwheels.com, and the offset has to be below 56mm for the rear. You will probably need to do the BFH mod to cram the 11" rim and 315 tire. You could play it a bit safer and run a 305, but the BFH may still be required.

Are you sure its an 11" wide rim? I thought OE wheels only went up to a 10.50. Also I think you have your offsets mixed up, the larger offset is usually the rear one. Yes BFH means big hammer, and that would be needed for an 11" rim with a 56mm offset, you also might have to roll the fenders and get an adjustable panhard bar

50 will work, i think mine are 52. i have 17x11 inch wheels with 315s on the back of mine. i did do a little wacking with a hammer and rolled the wheel wells just to be safe.
