only problems are the exhaust will bang on the rear axle, easily fixed with stronger (ford focus) exhaust hangers & a bit of sponge gaffer taped to the axle below the exhaust

does he have aftermarket allows? they will need to be the correct offset et45-49

if they are 15's u wont need to do anything
if they are 16's or 17's then you will need to remove the top two rear arch bolts and also cut the front inner arch lining
