My wifes ralliart has falcon offset 20's on it (check my albums for pickys ) and I have had to cut away most of the flares and run a smaller than legal tyre to make it drivable. Most falcon wheels sit level with the front guards on a standard magna. If you car is lowered it may cause you more greif than it's worth

They're going to stick out way too far.

If they won't fit on a falcon - AU on, they're not going to fit your Magna. Anything less than 35+ & you're going to run into trouble.
