To get them to fit you need about 28mm adapter.
I'd say, just look around and try find another type of wheel that you like, if insurance finds you have adapters you could get knocked back on any payout. That all providing you have a crash!hehehe! But yeah, find wheels that fit in my opinion.

will fit using adapters but thats illegal, not worth the hassle.
i dont think they would even look that crash hot on an ef, you could find a heaps better looking rim already in e series offset.

This is 100% bang on advise, Yes those spacers are illegal to use ON THE ROAD, doesn't mean to say you can't use them on a 1/4 mile track.

And I second the fact that those rims I don't think would look kinda right on an E-Series.

2c's worth, but its your call mate.
