4th gen rims

The backspacing on the fourth gen rims that you got will bolt up to your car but you'd have to run a 2" spacer.

The inner top part of your rims from the front are hitting against your strut, the rear will fit but the tims are going to be a little too far "in" the fender.

Their offset is different. Very wrong for one of these cars.

You need spacers; 1¾" or 2", at all 4 wheels, depending on how you want them to fit to the car.
