It should fit. Go buy a set of hubcentric ring. Their hub bore is 57.1, ours is 56.1.

Those are BBS RC wheels. Just double check the offset on those, but they should fit with no issues. Just get the hub centric rings as mentioned above.

Can someone give me a link, I honestly dont know what that is. Can you get them at a local auto parts shop or wheel shop?

btw, not really sure what those rings are about, the wheels are basically a straight swap, nothing else is needed

i dont have any pics from the back, but i can say that the wheels are significantly wider. they sit flush with the fender though, so it looks nice. you'll feel a difference in the ride.

only other picture i have:

There's no such thing as a 1mm hubcentric ring. It would have to be 0.5mm thick. I suppose you could have some custom-machined, but there's no production version of it that I know of.
