On the front or rear? Assuming its for the front, looking at that spoke design, im gona have to say no. Probably need at least a 20mm spacer...but dont quote me on that

Clearing the brakes depends on spoke design, not offset..So if you REALLY like those rims, just run a bolt on spacer. But with a bad offset, when you see them on your car, your not going to (probably) like the rims anymore.

But if they are just sitting at your house with good tires and they fit, may as well run them. But the *perfect* set of rims takes a lot of consideration of what YOU want.

this is true.

typically mesh rims do not clear big brakes.. so i'm going to say no.
