I was initially worried about the offset difference on the rears but after installing think it is a perfect. I would recommend installing them to see how everything fits/looks and go from there. To do a test install as to determine how it looks you do not need to install the hub centric rings on the fronts but would not recommend driving any distance/speed without them.
Awesome thanks for te confirmation on F/R center bore
Will have to put them on the car.a tire shop will have no problem doing it in less than 10 min.it should look pretty good for my winter setup(winter in Seattle really means unending days of rain)
