I have searched my ass off this morning and I figured I would just through this out there... Would these fit? And what do you guys think?

I like the look, I know the search ****'s are probably going to get me, Flame suit is on and ready.

I was actually checking out these same rims. I came to the conclusion that they won't work because they have a 35 mm offset. They would stick out too far. You could roll or cut the fenders and they might work with a normal size tire. But if you want ones that fit I think you'll need more of an offset. I like that design too and the price is even better. But there are other companies that offer the same design or one similar for not much more and you can get offsets that fit. Try aza z-2s. They look the same or similar and I think they have offsets that'll fit our cars with little or no modification.

Edit: check out this thread... I was hinting at these wheels.

I would not want to go through all the rolling/grinding trouble for an 8.5" wheel.

Those are bad azz looking rims. Would be worth rolling to me. Look like mine but I don't have the fat lip.

As Major Tom has mentioned, the 35MM offset will be a problem. I tried this on a 17X8 rim with the 35MM offset and the tire was right over the fender.

Yeah except you bought your car that way, and didn't have to go through the huge pain in the ass of rolling.

Very true. But that is something that should be done by a professional not in the driveway. So, it isn't really that much of a pain.
I still really like the look. There should be something comparable out there that fits right in the first place. Right?
