Cheers!
Not bad price either.
The offset is 50 so is this OK?

Not a bad look at all, be careful with the build quality though - I was at an alloy shop once who recommended against me buying these for my car on the grounds that they're not as sturdy as many out there and the finish isn't the best quality around.

Shouldn't put you off, but try and make sure you actually get to look at the wheel before buying it

Fair enough, good sound advice, cheers.
What should I look out for?

If you can, grab something like an OZ wheel and have a good look up and down the finish of that and then do the same with the Toora wheels - you should notice the difference in quality according to what I've heard, but have a look at the end of spokes and the rim where there are contours, just to check the finish there.

The rigidity shouldn't be a problem unless you plan to go on track lots or live round a particulary "pot hole" filled neighbourhood
