Thanks - these aftermarket wheels actually have 10 holes for bolts - I'm told that is so that it will be "universal" and fit any (or almost any) car. Are you familiar with those kind of wheels?

The biggest issue you may have is with the hub bore size and bolt pattern on the wheels. I ran all winter with my wheels lug-centric since the center bore of Crown Vic wheels are significantly larger than the LEAF wheels. Some people say that's a bad idea since it puts the shearing force at a 90 angle to the lug studs, which may not be designed to take that kind of load and abuse that a wheel mounted hub-centric would. I had no issues.
So check your new wheels for a 5x114.3" bolt pattern, then check the hub bore diameter, it should be 66.1mm.
