The RH Cups I had were stamped et45 but you needed the RH spacer which is 10mm because the mounting face of the wheel isn't flat and is machine in a way that you have to use the spacer. Mine were 8" wide though so not sure about the narrower ones.

You could get a set of Image wheels made to fit your dimensions. Depends how deep your pockets are.

Another thing to note is that the wider you go, the more likely an et49 wheel won't fit

I did have 7's on the front at one stage and I think they had flat mounting faces but can't remember tbh as it was that long ago!
