In terms of the alloys, I have you trial fitted them to check offset/clearance etc? Are the nut holes wide enough to allow space to get the key in to undo them? Some alloys have narrow holes and require 'tuner' nuts which are undone using a tool to grip the inside:

OK I will order the set of 20 main nuts then as like you say they are locking nuts anyway so would not need the separate locking nuts I have not tried the alloy's they are 17" and 7" wide so the same as standard wrx alloy's so i guess they should be fine? How would I check if the nuts holes are wide enough to allow space to get the key in to undo them without ordering the 20 piece set you looked at for me?
