Message Found a set of Volk GT-C wheels with the specs below.

5x114.3
Front 18x8 +43 face 1
Rear 18x10 +37 face 2

I don't have hicas as I have a converted 2+2 so I believe I should have more backspacing in the rear. In addition, the face 2 version also has different curvature on the spokes.

Questions:
1. First and foremost, would these fit? Reviewed this post Definitive discussion of wheels sizes and offsets and the fronts fit within the min/max values but the rears do not. However, since I don't have hicas, would the +37 rears fit?

2. Front sizes are not ideal. Was really looking to get 18x8.5 or 18x9. Any input on potential handling with this set up? Note: Would be mostly city/highway driving. At most would like to eventually do an autocross or track my car maybe a couple times a year.

I've been looking at a few different wheel styles for the past few months and this is my favorite set. In addition, these wheels are now discontinued in 18s". Although sizes may not be ideal, essentially would like to know if these would "work" for my purposes. If handling or ride quality will be horrible, then i'll forego.

TIA.
