Question 2012 Scion TC rims on '05 TL?

I am currently looking for some winter wheels and I was looking at a set of 2012 Scion TC 18 inch wheels. Specs are 18x7.5 +39 offset with a 66.06 center bore... will these work on my 05 TL base, non BBK? The price is right on these and I think they would make some good looking winter rims

Right, so with the TC rims being a larger bore, should work then right? maybe with some hub centric rings..?

What's the bolt pattern on the newer Scion's? The old ones were 5x100 if I remember right.

New ones are 5x114.3, so that's right on.

Anymore input from anyone? I got a line on a good set with tires for around $500 and I think they would look good for some winter mode wheels... And in general on the TL

^well, the only issue that we're stuck on is converting the hub bore.
instead of waiting around for us, be proactive and research if you could convert a larger hub bore to a smaller one.
you can call wheel shops, google for the answer, etc.

I dont know why I didnt post earlier, but it should be common sense that a larger bore can easily fit on a smaller hub size. anyways, these rims should fit, and it'll have the same fender clearance since +39 pushes the rim 6mm more than stock, but the 7.5" width reduces the width by 0.5" which translated to 0.25"(6mm) more clearance. That gives a net gain of ZERO mm.

Nope. That's why we can't fit Subaru rims I think their center bore is 59mm. Also as another example, Hondas can fit Nissan wheels but not vice versa.
