I'd be happy to give you an answer if you mentioned the sizes/offset.

I would not recommend those wheels. 7.5 is fine for the front but not the rear. Plus the ad says the offset is +35 which is too low ( unless you want to do a lot of modifications to your fenders and are going for the hellaflush look). Those would be a giant leap downward from the oem 17" wheels.

Those look gross IMO, are in a horrible width, and the wrong offset. So, no those won't work, sorry man

appreciate the responce regarding the offset etc, im a complete novice so the guidance ref; working the fenders is good to know.

regarding opinion, i hear you and respect your opinion, but i like them and they are going on my car so im sure thats all that matters looks wise-i like the angular chunky look, unless you have an alternative suggestion i could consider, then im well open to suggestions.

i personally dont like all the BBS wheels, but thats me and my taste.
not trying to create an argument, i just respect everyone has different tastes

If you are going to get them you should email the vendor first. In the description of the wheel, it says offset 38 to 50. You should see if you can get them in a +45. That would require less fender work and overall better fitment.
