5x110 5x114.3 with 42mm offset fit?

Local guy is selling them for 200$ w/out tires and was wondering if they would work...came off a g6. they are 18x7.5s



wondering how they'd look on SRTC, think it'd be okay. looks p.similar to stock spoke design wise.

so is the pattern 5x110 or 5x114? 200$ is a good deal tho it seems.

and before you buy them jus mount one on the front to verify they clear the calipers

The redrill looks a little too close for comfort.....they might need a small spacer to clear the califers but I'd be worried that the wheel won't hold up.

that is also something i noticed, on how close together the drilling is...if it was going on something slow like my Passat I wouldn't worry about it...but the Cobalt has well over twice the power and the thinness of the metal between the bolt holes kinda scares me.

/\ What they said. Looks like there might not even be metal in between in some places.

Also with that concave I doubt they will clear the brembos.
I took my old rims from my G6 and used them as winters and they were concaved a bit and 18x7.5 I needed a 5mm spacer but those ones seem even deeper.
