those ones would have been bought with the correct offset.the wheels for sale will fit but you'd need a hell of a wide arch kit.
Monster-Mat
fronts will fit, the rears will need to do arch mods, i have similar spec wheels on the Monster
mad mel
when you say arch mods.... what sort of arch mods...??? also whatsort of price are we talking here... any pics would help aswell... kinda new to all this wheel changing stuff...lol

im not entirely sure on the rims themselves... i think they mite look well on my green is200 when i finally get it lowered, or they mite look like f.a... lol...

all help appreciated guys....
ormi
my wheels are a et35 yours are et of 20 so yours will stick out 15mm further than mine and mine have the slight euro poke ie the wheels sit slightly out but the tread sits under the arch.see pic.(car just had new springs fitted that day so haddent settled in sits slightly lower now)

from the rear(note how the wheels stick out slightly)

yours if you get the ones you are looking at will stick out a further 15mm
mad mel
thanks ormi... so i would def need to roll the arches... would this work ok and would this be costly to do? as i dont want to fork out 350 for wheels and not be able to use them... i think they are also staggered fitment...

I'd be worried about stretching a 225 tyre across a wheel 9.5 inches wide ....
