4 is the correct offset for the Torq Thrust D Series 105 15x6 wheels,
but it's millimeters, not inches.  Backspacing for these wheels is
3-5/8"

The 4" figure Bruce is calling out is not offset, it is backspace. With
a  
six inch wide wheel, just about any backspace from 3.25" to 4" should
work okay. 
 A 15 x 6 will be fine. Clearance will also be a function of tire size.
If 
you  run a 205/55-15 all around, with the 15 x 6 on the front and a 15 x
7 on 
the  rear, it should match and clear. If you want to retain front to
rear 
rotation,  use the 15 x 6 all around. That tire can be used on anything
froma 5.5 
inch to a  7.5 inch. - Seth Emerson
