i know the bolt pattern is the same, but is there a off set issue with them?

they look ok, maybe stripped and powder coated silver would look better in my opinion

Im thinking about leaving them black for now, and maybe powder coating them a flat black or bright orange since I already have silver rims you know. I have to check on the offset, hopefully they sit flush enough for me not to need spacers

these are the specs
how do you guys think they will fit

17-inch:
Width - 6.5 inches
Offset - 52.5mm
Tire size - P205/50R17 V-rated

It will fit. The bolt pattern is correct and the offset is quite high (not sure on these rims but its +50mm for the RX-8).
I would pick up a set of hubcentric rings though. I got my set from ebay, they were like 20 bucks. Just search my name and hubcentric rings. I talk about getting them for my RX-8 wheels. If you still cant find it, just send me a PM so that I remember to search my email for the right size.

So i just did some research and these things would look like spare tires on our cars since the width is only 6.5 inches.... Not going to do it!

well the TL-S rims are 17x6.5 and the CL-P rims are 17 inches (not sure on the width). Its a pretty normal size.
