Will these wheels fit?

If Tire Rack says they will fit then they will fit. I have bought several sets of aftermarket wheels from Tire Rack in OEM diameters and never had a problem with them fitting.
But since it looks like those 16" Enkei wheels will not accept clip-on balancing weights, you might consider going with either 16" wheels that will accept clip-on weights or 17" wheels that have enough clearance at the front brake calipers for stick-on weights in the inside of the rims. Otherwise, you may not be able to have your wheels/tires balanced to your satisfaction.
I had this problem with 16" Mille Miglia wheels I bought from Tire Rack in 2003 to use with winter tires on a 2000 LS400. Tire Rack installed the winter tires I bought at the same time and balanced them using only stick-on weights on the insides of the rims since the rims would not accept clip-on weights. When I mounted the wheels/tires on my 00 LS, the front brake calipers immediately tore off the stick-on weights. I kept the Mille Miglia wheels but never could get a true dynamic balance on them.
I suggest that you call Tire Rack and discuss this with them.
