Well, in all fairness, none of the links mentioned the shape of the seat. Their pictures show cone-seat lug nuts. A simple phone call would clarify the needed information.

On a different note, are you sure that you *REALLY* want to run those wheels?

Are you building the car for a certain class of competition? 8.5 is pretty narrow and unless you run a huge spacer in the back, they will look pretty sunken in the rear. That is about the same sizes I run for my winter set-up. It looks like ***.

I agree with Brendan, I run 350Z 18x8.5 ET30 wheels with 245/50/18 Falken Eurowinter tires as a winter set and they look not right. I suppose if that's the look you're after, a wheel with such specs would fit the bill.

Agreed, those wheel specs are rather small. In my opinion, if you're spending the money on new wheels, I'd suggest getting wider than stock. You'll get more tire contact and it'll look way better.
