Yes they will fit easily but you'll need 165/55 tyres.

I ran 165/60/r14 with those exact specs, slight scrubbing on full lock. Could go 175/50/r14 which is easier to get there 165/55/14 and 155/55/14.

Should have mentioned with that offset you'll probably need to trim the protrusions off the rear upper bump stops so the tyre doesn't rub.

They clear by a few mm with those wheels. No need to angle grind.

Should see my upper bump stops, nothing left of them to get calipers on the rear to clear them.

Depends on what tyres you're using.

The arches might need rolling but with +45mm offset I'd say it will be okay.
