2016 RDX wheels, different offset?

I have a great deal on a set of KIA 18" rims. Here are the specs.

The rims are from a Kia Sorento. They are 7.5Jx18 ET49, which means an offset of 49mm with a width of 7.5 inches and a diameter of 18 inches. The bolt patter is 5 x 114.3 mm. The centre bore is 67.1 mm

The bolt pattern should be fine but I'm worried about the 49mm offset and don't know much about centre bore. Can anyone chime in? Thanks.

Honda/Acura center bores are typically 64.1mm, so you'd need a very thin hubcentric ring to make sure the wheels seat true on the hub. Also, the offset for the 7.5" wheels on these cars is still at +45mm, so you'd be ever-so-slightly sending the wheel inward - probably not enough to impact things, but you might get a slightly different feel when turning since you'd have slightly different geometry.

As an FYI, the CR-V wheels (which fit the RDX are typically 6.5" wide, and as such the offset is +50mm - so that loss of an inch in wheel width is compensated by slightly moving it inward...

good luck - andy
