The stock offset is 40 from my search so that's good.
bolt pattern is good (4x100)

my question is: is the backspacing alright at 5.47" on these rims?

Seems like a decent deal,they will look better on my VSM coupe than the stock plastic hubs on the 14's I have now.

thanks .

its ur car do what u want, but I have to agree those rims wouldn't look good on your car. Maybe if they were 17's instead of 15's they'd look ok maybe...

You'd be better off saving ur $$$ and picking up some OEM rims with a good set of tires. Good luck

Anything in the range of 30-40 offset on a 7" rim is fine. Less offset if you want more lip. Get a nice set now so you wont have to buy them later. Black and polished looks tacky IMO at least on those wheels.

alright.. enough on those specific rims, it was a search sorted by lowest price and those were at the top!

I just want to make sure I am looking for the right specs when I search, that's all.

its all about getting rid of the nasty plastic craps that my car is currently sitting on.
