Unhappy Need help with FD OEM 17'' wheels specs

Ok here is the thing.

I run an FD track car.
the class I run allow us to use up to 8'' wide wheels anything wider you have to put weight on the car. but all wheels must be equal size. bassiclly you cannot stagger the wheels.

I'm running JDM 17 stock FD wheels 17x 8 front and 17x8 1/2 rear.

I have to show the offficials that this is a factory stagger sizing in order to be allowed to use the stock wheels.

does anyone have the specs where this is written in a magazine article or mazda paperwork, something to back my word is what I need.

I dont want to buy another set of wheel$$$.

Please help me out

If your sanctioning bodies are like those in the US, what was stock on a JDM car or car of different year doesn’t count.

17s date back to 95 if that is in dispute.

This might help for non BBS installs, although if they're like most organizing bodies, probably require, certified translations - and I'd wonder what they'd think of the stapler!
