Question ATV Wheel Madness

OK, maybe it's not possible (and may reveal my lack of automobile knowledge) but... is there anything that would keep an ATV wheel that has a 4x110 bolt pattern from working? Here's the link to a site that makes them http://www.motosportalloys.com/2008/climax.html

The wheel is a 14x7 I'm just not sure about the offset if it would work. Also, there's probably some kind of safety issue. But man, the wheels are cheap! $300 for a set. If it would work it'd be awesome. So yeah what do you think?

like djessence stated... they would NOT support the weight of our cars. those wheels are defintely not strong enough or DOT compliant.

That would be fine, the other way round not so much.

Ha Ha, I figured. Although this thing must weigh about as much as an RX-7, it's a picture from their website.
