What car are they meant for? You'd have to do your brakes up with those wheels.

You would need bolt-oh wheel spacers to run those wheels, because they have too much offset. Also, technically our cars use a 5x120.65mm (5x4.75") bolt circle.

Had a bad feeling that would be the case.... oh well. Maybe someday someone will come out with a set of gold and silver rims that will fit the bird...i doubt it, but....anyhow...thanks for answering the question.

The beauty of running spacers is you can convert to the bolt pattern you need.
