Carefull boy !!!
I had bad experience with Mille Miglia Action in 17x7 on my ex-gti vr6.....Hit a hole and you bend a wheel....
And they do weight a lot more than your original wheels, so expect a performance drop. On my vr6, the performance drop was almost equal to the gain the Neuspeed chip gave me...about 5 small cars distance on a 0-160 run.

But don't listen to me too much cause all my theorys brought me to buy OZ Superleggeras , which are quite expensive...Most of the people I know don't have that much money to put in wheels (neither did I), but I bought those cause I was Tired of riding with square wheels and having to pay to put them in shape afterwards...

Don't worry with rubbing, geeee, there's a lot of space in those fenders......on my gti, I couldn't pass my small finger between the tire and the fender's edge....on my celica, way more space !!
