They are the same stud pattern, but different offset. will upset your steering geometry. AU with ea Snowflake mags looks fecken funny hanging right out the guards :D

Or use Hub Adapters. Probably/Maybe/Definitely illegal. I've used them for years, as have many others and I have never had a hassle. I have even attained vic RWC's with them on. They allow fitment of AU/BA wheels to fit on an EF. Can get them from tyre and wheel shops. Cost is about $280
