Just make sure the bolt sits right in the wheel and has near enough the same amount of thread out the back as your current wheel.

Also ensure the bolt seats are the same (radius for oem wheels and tapered for majority of aftermarket type)

Also being 7' would 225/45 rubber be ok or should they be 215?
