Will these wheels work

Throwing around the idea of selling my sp500 and going with flared rear fenders. These just posted up locally. Will they work?

Ask if he knows the offsets. It's going to be a guessing game without those.

If they are c6z offsets they will fit. You will need to run a spacer on the rear if you want them flush to the flared fender.

It'll be a harsh ride. Also find out what the weights are. Performance will suffer with the extra weight of the bigger wheels and tires.

as stated earlier off-set is critical in determining. 25mm profile is quite slim, low, harsh...you may want to reconsider, rear width of tires is quite wide unless your considering wider rear fenders.
