Will these wheels work?

The wheels I'm looking at are 17x7.5 5x114.3 +40 offset. Any help would be great, as I'm supposed to look at them tomorrow! Also, anyone know where to get aftermarket center caps at?

I would check out your bolt pattern i have a 06 and mine is 5x115.. and you going for speed or looks???
 
Well everyone on here says that the 114.3 will work, which I assumed since it's a hair of a difference from 115. I'm going for looks, I only drive back and forth to work and the store:th_laugh-lol3:
 
Thank god. I have someone to buy my stockers (only way the wife will let me buy new ones :( ) and so I've been looking for a set like mad! Know where I can order aftermarket center caps?

jimmyjam33>> if your car is a daily driver, I recommend keeping your stock wheels and tires for winter. Less chance of curbing a wheel and having the chrome pit and peel from salt.

Centercaps for your new wheels?
 
Ok, i'm either getting American racing chrome casinos or ICW black 5 spokes with a chrome lip. What do you all think would look better? They're both 17's.
 


Well, I'm buying them used, but the person with the ICW's doesn't have a lot of insight such as back spacing, etc., so I'm going with the Chrome Casinos. The sidewall is a little smaller than stock, so I don't think they'll look horrible. Better than stock 16's I see all over town!
 


I think you are all crazy!! I just went to buy a set of 5x114.3's that came off a mustang. There was no way in hell that wheel was going on my car. I got four bolts lined up with the wheel at an angle, and the 5th was not having it!!
 
Yeah, that's what I was thinking the whole time. I've had Dakota wheels on a malibu I use to have, so I know it's not that much difference. Totally bummed, back to square one again...
