they should do.....i am pretty sure they're the correct offset for AU + BA.
they're multi fit, meaning they have 2 different stud paterns......one of them is 5 x 114.3, which is the falcon patern i was considering getting them and using the adapters to fit them to my NC fairlane...... they're a very nice looking rim |

AUs and BAs have a +35 off set, you may be able to vary slightly on you offset, i am running a 40 offset to run a wider rim without rolling the guards.

They won't fit an AU or BA front - they will hit the upper arm. 40mm is max offset for the front.
