be careful using info from sites with generic info. those are aftermarket wheel recommendations that are extremely broad and do not tell the entire story.
yes, the bolt patterns are the same and they should work, but those offsets are just bull**** numbers some aftermarket wheel company came up with and absolutely worthless without widths, imo.

regardless of my rant above, they should work.
teardrop = sc wheels, yes? if that's correct, you'll lose half an inch in width, but that just puts you back at regular triangle wheel size of 14x5.5. sorry, I don't know the offset for the paseo, but it *shouldn't* be too far off from mki offset. sounds like you're doing this as a fairly temporary measure anyway so you're good.

Yeah, they're the stock Supercharged alloys. I'm just putting on some decent wheels to sell the car, since the ones on the car have a bend, and are causing some vibration.
