Look like Merc AMG rims.

Drill out the holes and bolt them on.

These 16" seem the only (cheapish) option.
Speaking to ebay sellers they look/maybe thin enough for standard studs. But would like to hear if anyone on here has actually fitted these alloys to a standard syncro stud?

Karl, I have a set of these Scorpio wheels and will be looking at fitting them to my truck this week. I will let you know what is necessary shortly. The offset is great at 32, so should work well. They are only 6.5 inch wide, so good in that respect, too. If you are down my way you can always try a wheel on your truck to get an idea. Matt
