You will need to fit hub centric rings to get them to fit properly as the hub has a different diameter. If you don't, you will get judder.

Looks is far too much an individuals personal taste or we woulds all have the same wheels. If YOU like them, buy them.

This is what they look like. These are the type I used to fit E70 alloys to my E53. Perfect fit and much better than the plastic rubbish.
