The bolt pattern is the same (5 x 108mm).
The backspacing of the rim is quite a bit different (i.e. the offset, or centerline of the rim, is deeper into the hub for FWD wheels.)
You need wheel spacers and longer studs, or wheel adapters that bolt over your existing studs.
Take a bare rim before you put a tire on it, and try it on your hubs, front and rear. You'll see what I mean. Backside clearance will be too tight, especially on the sides of the trunk box.
Now, pull the rim out about 3/4". See how little stud length is showing? That's why you'll need longer studs.
Do it right and be safe- don't home-brew something and risk having a wheel come off. These wheels can be used on RWD's, but the guys doing it have put some work into a proper solution.
By the way 240 wheel studs are NOT metric- they are 1/2"-20 fine thread.
