they look good. . . .BUT after seeing the correct offset/lip I would rather go with the correct ones. . . I would buy them and sell them as others have suggested. . . .

Guaranteed everybody is going to think that I'm full of ****, but I bought a set of those for 600 bucks, wheels and tires, on the car. However, they were pretty heavily corroded and needed some TLC, but after about 4 to 6 hours a piece, they look mint now.

The big deal is they're a forged wheel that weigh less than stock 16" wheels and they look DAMN good.

Fikse has made a name for themselves for exceptional quality and being a great track wheel as well. Please if you don't know what you're talking about do not reply.
Chrome wheels for the most part are big, ugly, gaudy and don't belong on an F-body. There are a few exceptions like ZR1's and Z06's, but those are probably the only chrome wheels I like on F-bodies.
