ROH snyper help

So I found a set on craigslist for pretty cheap.

http://longisland.craigslist.org/ptd/4079761982.html

The ad says BMW/Firebird, but I'm positive the bolt pattern is not exactly the same for both manufacturers.

Also, are there diferent sets? If I look at them, should I measure for a specific offspace, backspace, etc?

BMW is 5 lug on a 120-mm lug circle, while we have 5 on 120.65-mm. Close enough, especially for those who trust swivel-nuts. We have a sticky about widths and offsets.

Re: ROH snyper help

Found another set.

Can the stock acorn lugs be used to mount them? I know they used to make them third gen specific, there aren't different bolt patterns are there?

Also, will 17x9 rub in the front?
