As all 4 have the same offset, does anyone know if they will fit?

No, they won't fit. You need the right offsets and widths.

Happily, Compomotive will make them to order. (I have a set myself)

And they're not MO17's as the seller states, they're MO6 nerd

Check the profile pic to see how they look on a Griff.

I think you will find they do fit, ok a bit skinny for the rear but off set is fine. Same as my 17" Azev's (on a Chimaera)

There's a BIG difference between simply fitting on the car and actually being fit for purpose.

7" is far too skinny on the back, and while the offset is the right number it will narrow the track by approximately 10mm. ET35 also makes the track 20mm too narrow on the front, which could result in fouling on the inner arches.

These make for too many handling compromises for me, so I would not consider them to fit. Would you fit wheels from a Ford fiesta on the grounds that they fit because the PCD and stud patterns are right?

ETA: Just noticed you're a Chim driver... Maybe they have different offsets to a Griff?

9" with either a 25 or 40mm offset on the rear of mine. CBA to go out and see which end has which offset.
