I'd say they will fit on the car, but will look odd at the front, and the car will not handle well..

9" width on the front is really too wide, and certainly isnt helped by the ET25 offset! Infact I'd say the rears will be a struggle with that offset, therefore arch mods would be required...

Rota's are fairly commonplace, so don't jump at the first ill-fitting set that comes up, get a correctly fitting set and ensure your car handles well!

Also i think if you contact rota they will sell 2 of one size and 2 of another, which ideally is what you want on the car. 7" front and 8" rear or 8" front and 9" rear.

Like the other guy said, buying a package isn't always the best way to go. :thumleft:
