DSM Wheels fit?

I was at the junkyard today and they are willing to sell me 4 very nice plymouth laser 16" mesh rims WITH 215/50/16 tires on them for $100.. I like these wheels, but will they fit on my '88 TII? I know the bolt pattern is the same, but does anyone know, , offset wise? I think they'll look fantastic on my car and for $100, I can't go wrong.

all I've been able to find out is that the lug pattern is the same. I googled to no avail for the offset of them.

look on the back of the wheel, there should be an ET #. That will be the offset in mm.

Just bring your car, a lug wrench and a jack. I'm sure they will let you bring one wheel out to the parking lot to throw it on your car....

The offset will probably be wrong since DSM's are based on a FWD transverse engine layout.

Thanks blackRx7, that's all I wanted to hear...

I'm going to try them in the parking lot, and we'll see.
