Yes it will fit. You will need to roll the rear fender. You need a front and rear camber kit. Your gonna run -2 up front and -3 to -5 in the rear depending on your tires... That's about it bro

You can actually run them how ever the hell you want.
Beefy tires, stock height, blah blah blah.

It just depends on what kind of 'stance' or look you want to execute.
Your average ep3 owner with these wheels run stretched tires, low, and lots of negative camber.

I'd run 195/50/16 tires.
It's a nice stretch, and it's not under-sizing your tire diameter a whole lot

I'd get hub centric rings if because the offset's are so low, and you probably will run camber. You need 73 to 56.1.

I HIGHLY recommend rolling your fenders if you plan on getting ANY aftermarket rims. I think it makes things much easier in the future.

Camber wise I ran about -3 front and about -6 rear.

And like any aftermarket wheel you need lug nuts designed for it.
You CAN NOT use oem lug nuts.

Okay so you posted up Andy's ride and Miah's ride.
No Hate on Andy (just hung with him yesterday actually) but his ride is just a tiny bit too tall, and not enough camber for the wheels
He needs to drop it a bit more.

Miah on the other hand is pretty fricken slammed.
He's got more camber front and rear, and more stretched tire, which allows him to go lower and execute that look better.

Miah's tire size: 195/50/16
I forgot the alignment but it's around -4F and -6R
Andy's tire size: 205/45/16
I forgot the alignment but it looked like 0 front and -3 rear.

Also: Andy hasn't rolled his fenders, but Miah did
Also I think Miah did a .25" fender pull but I may have that mistaken with someone else.

I have 205/45/16 and its not that bad... tho i do have my fenders rolled i was able to slam my ride with yet the agressive and hellaflush look...-2 upfront and -4.5 in the rear... i did try 195/40 and it was tiny and streched... id opt out for miahs specs...
195/50/16 fucking sick and flush with good amount of stretch
205/40/16 clean but have to be slammed to be hella flush
205/45/16 ok if u dont want to be slammed while being flush
Those three are the tires id go with...
