Well I just looked it up and they are 114.3 and that is 4.5 inches, so they will work. They will need spacers though....

if they are not the exact same bolt pattern they may not stay tight

To each, his own. I'm not sold yet either until I see the real thing. And there's more to consider besides looks. Fitment and driveability will fall in there as well. I still want to see the real thing bolted on a car so I reserve my final position on these.
