Offset only 42 mm. Does that make these a bad choice for 205/55/16 tires?

Each wheel was $58 as well so maybe a little pricey...

I remember when deciding on a color for my car was hard... Damn decisions. :P
Hub centre bore outside diameter actually measured at about 55.98mm, stock wheel inside bore diameter at 56.25mm. Tire rack suggests its 16 inch steel are 56 mm bore. Not sure whether 57mm is considered bore sloppy or not?

I don't think all steel wheels are created equal?

Another question to consider is how much change in the tread dimension from stock actually over stresses the wheel bearings?
