Errr...whats an "X-Factor"? For an N/A, the lug spacing is fine, and the width of the wheel is fine. I don't see an offset listed. You will need a +40 mmm offset or lower (+35 in the front and +30 in the back is best IMO).

I think the ET is the Offset and I dont know what X-factor is (copied off of a website). There are 2 different offsets for this type of wheel. One is 14 and the other is 42 according to the website.

Former Moderator. RIP Icemark.
for those wheels, the clearance from stut housing to the inside of the wheel will be 26mm MORE than a stock 16x7 wheel.
The outside edge of the wheel will EXTEND an extra 26mm over what the stock 16x7 wheel would.
So it would look like some downtown low rider with wide wheels sticking way way out.

Lives on the Forum
Those numbers don't make any sense.
"ET" is typically offset, but they do a backspacing spec - both are not even close.
A backaspace of 116mm = about 4.5"
ET of 14mm = to a backspacing of about 7" / 2 + 14mm = 3.5" + 0.5" = 4"
The specs are off be about half an inch.
Find out what the actual specs are!
Until we know what the real offset is, I can't give you a real answer.
