The key to "fitting" is the offset and rim width. Also note that many many people are running wheels and tires which do not fit, lack adequate clearance, but they get away with it by driving carefully not turning full lock etc. The occasional snerk, snerk of a tire rubbing being O K with them because they love the LOOK.

I love these rims, I was at my local performance auto store in Miami and they told me 5k for a set of custom rims...I almost choked. So these are 900$, I am willing to risk a little rubbing to save 4100$ dollars : ) I like the look of these better anyway...

I do it all the time. A few times I made ridiculously low offers on things I wasn't sure I wanted, and they were accepted. That means you bought it! So, make sure you want the wheels for sure before you make an offer.

I also think they are going to fit, at least on the outside and probably on the inside for the rears. The fronts are going to be a little questionable on the insede, but I think that will be ok also. There may be a little rubbing inside on the fronts at about steering lock, but maybe not.
You will not need a spacer. The extra offset in the rears is just about enough to cancel out the extra width of the rim. The tires are going to be very close to the inside of the wheel openings in both front and rear, but I think they will clear.
What are you going to use for tires? Have you figured out the numbers for tire sizes yet? You can get by with up to about 26 inches in diameter in the rears and you will want about 25 in the front.
There is a good thread recently here that also about considering the changes in scrub in the fronts. You should find that and give that some consideration in your planning.
About eBay, when they list it with but it now and make an offer, I always make an offer. Yours is reasonable in my opinion, but I suspect they will come back with $800 plus shipping. Even then you might consider a counter offer at $750 plus shipping.
Hope this helps, Jerry Feather
