Default Wheel Offset

Hey all,

I own a 99 AUI Futura, and I want to buy these wheels of eBay (item: 220014448563). The offset listed is 36. Tyres are NEXEN N3000.

Would these fit straight onto my car ?

Any issues to be aware of ?

This Wheels can also come in an optional offset to suite earlier model falcons (by special order, same price, please contact me for more details)"

They will fit straight on. PCD should be 114.3 x 5 (Ford/Toyota/Nissan/Magna etc). AU/BA offset is 30 to 45. 36 is fine.

They are just BA XR8 copies. Nothing special, really, but a good price for 18s, and the Nexens are OK.
