Default Enkei NTO3+M Rims on tC???

Hey,
I am looking to buy a nice set of rims after I get a 2006 Nautical Blue tC mid-May and did some hunting and came across these:



Also, here is the info for the specs of the rims:

I am afraid of buying these rims and the bolt patterns don't match or the offset won't match. I don't know much about rims and would appreciate it if you guys gave me a hand on this one.

Plus, I am looking to lower the tC using Tein S-Techs (Front: 2.4 Rear: 2.0) and would a 18" fit with the drop depending on the bolt pattern and offset of the 18s fit the car?

18/8/35/5x100 This is your rim. I run the same sizes and it looks absolutely flush and perfect. You would need 225/40/18 tire size.

Aww, so it looks like the Hyper Black rims won't work as 18s. But, 17" Gold and 17" Silver seemingly only work on a tC. But, would a black still work at 18/7.5/42/5x114.3?

No, bolt pattern on tc is 5x100. Silver has perfect sizes. Gold will work but your wheels are going to sit a little deeper inside the wheel well due to higher offset.

I saw a gold one on a WRX the other day at the mall and I pretty much got an idea of what it will look like on a tC. Would look much better if it weren't for that ring near the lip. Does anyone know any rims that look like these, but without the ring near the lip?
