They are nice enough Jason but I'd say two things first

I have a spare set of 17" wheels that I bought off of Eddy for

Jason,
I would steer well clear of those copy wheels. May be ok for a chav to cruise around on his 318 m3 copy, but not for the way you drive.
The normal Rimstock wheels are great quality and well priced so have a look and see if there is anything you fancy.
If you want 8J, what was wrong with the ones i had off you? They are lighter than my Contours.

Jase why don't you go for some secondhand 5 series wheels? 8J and a good offset too.

The ones I use on Betty are 5 series Jason

They fitted just fine until I got the K Sports and then required spacing like Carlos Fandango
