Has anyone used the Empi Reproduction Fuchs?

(IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/uploads_offsite/farm5.staticflickr.com-20876-1512837049.1.jpg)

5 1/2 x 15 45mm offset (5" backspacing)

Quality?

Do the fronts hub center on the newer type hubs?

Thanks.

Looks great! What offset are the wheels? What size are the tires? Any work needed to clear?

Thanks.

Tires are 205/45/R16's. Rolled the rear fenders with a baseball bat, and pulled them out a little by hand. Plenty of room in front.
