ya, they should fit, but if you like the way they look use them, but they would never go on my car because i think they look ugly

yea let me try that again....

if you get a really good deal on them, go for it. If you dont like em, then sell em on a 7 forum. If hes your friend then im sure he will let you test fit them. I say go for it. It would be a change from everyone else running 172, 166, and 167's. I love all those oem wheels but something fresh is always nice to see!
