Depends on the off-set of the rims. Our Shark cars have brake calipers that will not usually clear most aftermarket rims. Sure, they will bolt on to the studs, but they may not clear the calipers. If you are looking to buy these rims, I would certainly suggest that you bolt at least one of them on the car to check for clearance...if possible, that is.
