The stock wheels on our cars are +55mm offset up front and +65mm offset in the back. I would guess that you are going to have the wheels sticking out from the car a fair amount further than stock. The rears would be half an inch narrower than stock - do you really want to do that?

the short answer is no. wrong offset and no stagger. gotta look elsewhere, I'm afraid. unless you are totally willing to compromise your car with spooky handling and wheels/tires that stick out beyond your fenders!
