hmmm...
there was a guy on here, that did a hell of a lot of mods to make them fit on his 3ES, so i cannot comment on your car, but maybe reconsider?
It was: Choas, all white 3ES, had some ridiculous spacers all round on his car to make it work.
I almost bought a set way back then ran accross his post and decided against it.

They will work, but it comes down to what look you want. Most want that flushed look, so you'll need spacers, but then you might have problems in the rear rubbing the tires. I had 245/40/18 in the rears with 15mm spacers and wasnt lowered at the time and rubbed the tires, even with shaved and rolled fenders. Like 01LEXPL stated, lots of work to get that flushed look with those type of rims.
