I always wanted a real set of these for something, never could justify spending the money to put 'em on a cheap car... I'd love to put 'em on my si. Will they fit? I know there was a thread about 16" wheels but all I got out of it is that "some" will fit.

That offset and width should clear, but the only absolute way to tell would be to contact the manufacturer or the seller and ask. If neither knows, one way to cheat may be to find out whether or not 16x7 Rota Slipstream in that offset clear, and if they do, you will probably be fine since they are just a knockoff of the spoon.

Not at all, Michael Bolton has them on his ride during the winter and they look hot.

We are regularly in each others cars and his rides like a cadillac compared to higher sized wheels with lower profile tires
