I think they are et36 as standard but not 100%

These would fit and look good imo

you should be fine with et35`s mate as i had a set of 16ins bbs rims (as seen on jays black rs500)which fitted and they are et28`s i did use a smaller tyre (205/45/16) on the front but you have loads of room at the back

If the standard offset is et41 mate then an et35 wheel of the same width will sit 6mm further out. The lower the number the more outset they are
Mine are now sold btw
