Urgent tire question

Being new to the 05+ cars, I have the chance (by Fri night)to pick up some 18" rims and really need help. I need to know if these would fit on our cars, so here goes.

The front wheels are 18x9 with a 5.95" backspace (+24mm offset)

The rear are 18x10 with a 6.4" backspace (+22mm offset)

The lug pattern is 5x4.5 (114.3mm).

btw, these are DD black bullitts.

Thanks in advance.

The backspacing on the factory wheels are 6.82".I hope this might give you a reference for measuring.

if they are for an 05 they will work if they are for a 94-04 then the 18X10's will stick out of the fenders
