IIRC, the stock wheels are ET35, so you might need 5(ish)mm spacers to get them flush

Pull off your wheel and check my stock wheel offset was ET43, I now have ET35 cuz everyone said stock was 35... do to that my tire is now lined up perfectly with the fender so every bump I hit I hit the fender!

Also I like the wheel style, I personally like 18's! But take the 5 mins bolt them on and look. I did the whole like up idea like you and it didn't do the wheels justice!
