Offset and Width Question

Have an 04 auto tl. Not lowered. Want to get these rims:

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...m=400163736644

Have a few questions.
Will they fit good?
Will they stick out?
Will they look good?
Are these rims good quality?

Here is my ride on facebook:

^ haha why wouldnt they fit? yea they have a low offset so they will stick out a bit more than stock thats for sure. ive never heard of these rims either and for $600 bucks i dont think id try them. if ur lokn to save some $ on rims thats cool but $600 is damn cheap even cheaper than varrestoen's

When you said that they wont fit good, is because they will stick out too far, or will they rub or something?

Add the following to the wheel/tire:
Fronts-additional 1.25" Rears-additonal 1.75"

This is where the new assemblies will be located, outside the body.

Ya they will stick out too far. Not getting them. For future references, how did you calculate the distance they would stick out?

your stock wheels are 8" with a 45 offset. if the wheels stick out past the stock offset keep in mind that the stock offsets are sunken into the fender so you want an offset that will stick out more than stock but not too much, so it looks better.

That's cool. Nice car.
May I suggest holding off on quick decision wheels? I jumped on the first thing I "liked" and now regret not saving up the extra 4-5 bills for some Volks or Works. Only speaking from my own personal experience.
