What width and offset are they?

I would think that they will be fine - as you can get the 5.5J steels over them!

both sets of alloys are 15 x 6, et49.

5.5 dont clear them, as ive tried.
your probably thinking of the smaller 2.0 litre brakes. which need 14x5.5 minimum.

15 x 6" steel wheels just fit, with about 1-2mm clearance. i dont have those wheels anymore tho.

i remember some people on here with v6 brakes, saying 6" alloys are the minimum, but not all of them fit. cavalier ones were ok iirc
