American Racing wheels/Toyo tires

I'm thinking of getting some custom wheels and tires. Wheels are American Racing 95 Estrella 16X7 5-4.5/4.25. Tires are P225/55R-16 Toyo Eclipse. I'll have my stock sensors installed in the new wheels and run the same air pressure. Is there any flaws in my decision?

I put these same wheels on my TC about 6 months ago and I really like them. I put the factory tires on mine since they had low miles on them. I used the stock sensors and they worked great. I had to buy new rubber valve stems from Ford since they are rubber and cannot be removed from the factory wheels. the sensors can be attached to the new stems.

Nice looking wheels! And not too expensive, either! I might just look into a set myself!

Is there anything I need to know about offset or lug pattern? I'd probably stick with the stock size since my tires are brand new and have TONS of miles left on them.

As for going to a larger size... Does that have any effect on the accuracy of the speedometer?
