Ruff,

Have a local wheelshop to install them for you if you arent sure. Your stock ones might be abit longer for 30mm offset, but if they don't hit your e-brake springs in the back, then go for it. Good luck

Another way to check is to count how many threads pop thru the rear of the stock wheel with the stock bolts. Then take your new wheel with the new bolts and count the threads on those. You want to make sure its the same number.

If its to long just cut off the extra stuff. If too short just by the correct length ones at your autostore.
