Default urgent help* thanks... RIM FITMENT issue

hi guys

i found a set of 16" OZ Superleggera that i know will look great on my 5th gen lude

the problem is... the set of rims is off a 92 Eagle Talon, and that set of rims fits the 92 talon nicely, so i'm not sure if it will fit my 5th gen prelude...

the guy said its 5x114.3 bolt pattern... can anyone reclarify me that the 92 talon is really 5x114.3? and not something like 5x114 or 5x100... coz i don't want to be buying the wrong bolt pattern

as well as, will the offset hurt me? i'm planning to lower about 1.6-1.8"... and the rims has 195/50/16 tires right now...

the question are:
1) is the bolt pattern right?
2) will the offset fit? (not sure what offset are the 92 talon's, but i know if i'm running 16" rims, i should have about +42 offset, right?)
3) will i potentially rub?
4) do i need any hubcentric rings? (since the hub of the talon and my 5th gen lude is different?)


thanks for your great help... the rims is for an awesome price and its very tempting, but i don't want to pick up a wrong set of rims for a couple hundred of dollars... any input/insight would be greatly appreciated

how are we supposed to know if the offset will fit if you don't give us the offset and the width?

Like someone said, I'm 0/100 on guessing the wheels in the Prelude picture thread, wish I could help.
