They appear to be MSR 043 16x7 et35. 7" wide with +35mm offset is a pretty flush wheel, but shouldn't poke out. If I were to get 7" wide wheels, I would want et35. You could get some rubbing without rolled fenders depending on how low you are. I ran 16x7 et40 on FRPP springs with no rubbing issues except at full lock.

You'll be "ok" in the sense that your car isn't going to fall apart. The stance might be a little aggressive for stock height, but will really pull the whole look of the car together when you go to SVT suspension.

On that note, if you're doing actual SVT suspension, you'll need the Massive Omni Kit to make the front struts fit your 06. That doesn't apply if you're simply getting the FRPP kit for 06-07.
