Question regarding Schnitzer wheels

Hello everyone,
Quick question about these schnitzer wheels:

Would these fit straight on to my currently unmodified 318 cabby, or do they need spacers or modifications or the like?
Cheers
Ben

Cheers bud, stevetigger and E30cabrioman...
It looks as if the black lacquer's fubared on a couple of the wheels. Any recommendation as to how to restore these to their former glory? I'm based in Acton, West London so would prefer somewhere local to get these re-lacquered, although I am prepared to travel if there is a recommended restorer in the vicinity.
Finally, would you rate these wheels, and the tyres that are fitted to this set? Would these wheels work all year round or would I have to get them swapped back to my BBSs in the winter? (The ad says that these are summertyres - I didn't know that there is a difference).
Cheers
Ben

Cheers Kos, I'll give you a shout when the wheels turn up
Unless they are naturally black in the first place... oo-er
