Default need some help with wheels!

First post here, hopefully not the last.

I have a 1.2 mk6 fiesta and was wondering if these wheels would go on my car. They're 15" 0 offset and have 165 45 R15 tires on them already.

Someone said the front wheels might poke out a bit so is there anything I can do so that they fit ok.

Any help is appreciated!

Thanks

The offset for your car is 35-45, at offset 0, there gonna stick out like a sore thumb

To give you an idea, I put Escort Cosworth wheels on my old ST, they were the completely wrong offset, yes my car was lowered so they caught on the back arches over bumps, but even without that, they just didn't look rite, stuck out far to far, were more trouble than they were worth

So I'd defo go for something around the rite offset. You will be fine with a slight variation, but from 35-45 to 0, they will be a mile off mate
