any reason these would not work?

They will fit. But they will look pretty EH without dropping your car.

That's a matter of opinion. In my opinion, the wheel gap would be too much, it would just completely take away from the wheel.

Glad to hear you like how they look. If you go lower, they will definitely look awesome.

True that. I wish more OZ's were available in 4-lug. It's impossible to find a good staggered set in our lug pattern. They're instant baller status.
