Some help with wheel fitment questions

ok i have a chance to buy the wheels from james chen's 350Z which he used in the sport compact car USCC (ultimate sports car challenge). sorry cant find any pics btw
the problems are:
a) will the bolt pattern from a 350Z even match up with a '93 FD?
b) they are 18x9.5 up front and 18x10.5 in rear respectively i dont think something that wide will fit into stock wheel wells, however correct me if im wrong
c) im not sure about offsets yet i just emailed the seller so i should know by tomorrow
they are made by AXIS wheels, they are a custom highly polished and gorgeous rim and i can get them for a really kick *** price however i just dont know if they will even be compatable with the FD as the seller is unsure and my research hasnt found anything useful
as far as suspension mods go its completely stock right now with the exception of R1 struts, however i am planning on upgrading to koni's and H&R springs later this year
so what do you guys think is there any chance or will tehy just not work as is
thanks alot

It won't work. 350Z offsets are too low. It's not even been proven that a 10.5 will fit, even with the perfect offset.
