rekon your going to have problems at the back end TBH mate, but the only way to tell for sure is bolt them on!

If the bolt circle diameter is the same they'll bolt on, but they're gonna hit the arches with that offset.

Bolt circle diameter is an imaginary circle where the edge of it lines up with the centre of the wheel nut/studs, for four-stud vauxhalls this is 4x100(4 studs centred on an imaginary circle of 100mm diameter).

*cough*pitch circle diameter :p

I had 15" et38 and they were ok, but that was with rolled rear arches, 50mm springs on the back and 60mm on the front (front arches were fine even without being fettled with) and the spax dampers tightened right the way up. Oh and a stripped backside.
