Default will these rims fit?

http://www.dcrims.com/DB/Online-Stor...p?prod=dc118mb

Will these rims fit on my 4x4.5" bolt pattern. What does it mean that the fitment is FWD? What should I look for in choosing a rim for my car. I'm going to be using a disc brake setup from scarebird.com up front that utilizes nissan stanza rotors and chevy cavalier calipers among other things. Any help is appreciated.

You would have to find them at a different place that says bolt pattern. Or you could email them.

being front wheel drive its gonna have alot of backspacing to deal with. On a fwd rim the bolt pattern sticks out of the wheel lip, on a rwd its placed behind the wheel lip.

Ok points taken, here's my situation. I've decided to keep this car pretty well stock, including the 4x4.5 wheels. I plan on painting the car a light metallic blue with white racing strips and like the look of a darker color wheel to set it off. Being 4x4.5 I'm having difficulty finding a wheel that will fit. Where on earth can I find a nice rim that is not too expensive or stupidly too large (I will not put on more than a 16" rim as it makes the car look ridiculous)??? There were some I like I saw in the Jegs magazine I got today and the smallest size was like 17". I like magnum 500's and similar designs but they won't fit with my bolt pattern. Should I get some of those adapter things? Here's a link: http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...ksid=p3907.m29
Suggestions?? P.S. At one point someone suggested outlaws - I think those are even more hideous than what you think those rims look like [:'(]
