FYI - Those are 10 spokes.
I think they are 18's. Bolt pattern, yes, they fit. Chibi might know more, as I believe there is an issue with tire size and rubbing problems depending on the tire size you go with.

I considered looking for those when I wanted new rims.

According to this eBay seller, that's an 18.... But it may have also been offered in 17s (not sure)....

i'd have to say these are my fav. style of rim that they've come out with for the impala. IDK why even, there isn't anything all to special about the design, it just looks really good

I honestly was considering a set of those rims for my Monte. I think they would look good. The reason I was kinda not for them is they lacked that "something" in the design of the spokes that the Vettes had with their 10 spoke rims....
The plus side is if you damage one, GM made LOTS of them and there are probably LOTS of salvage yards with them today.
