Default Wheels opinion

Hi guys, I want to ask for your opinion of getting a new wheel set for my 2001 Monte Pace Car.

I am thinking in:

*Pacer 342B Black Daytona 16x7 5x4.5

or

*Stealth Black Daytona 16x7 5x4.5

I want to take the tires I got in my original wheels and install them in these. I know the stock wheels are 16x6.5 5x4.52, will they fit?

I believe 5x4.5 is what I actually have on my Monte. Same as 5x114.3 I was told which is the pattern mustangs use.

What about the rim width? the stock are 6.5" and these are 7". the tires are 225/60R16, will they fit fine?

Is there anything else I should consider before buying any aftermarket rims, for example new lug nuts?

Well I am pretty sure between your car and my car there will be a little difference but I have 18x8 with no issues and my tire size is stock at 235/50/18.

With my wheels I was provided with stems and lugs. Then depending on if you plan to switch the TPMS or buy new ones.
