No - you need a centre bore of 67.1mm (or more if you use reducing spigot rings) - these are only 55mm.

By the way, you can use this as a guide to what wheels fit http://www.alloywheelsinternational.com ... UIDE1.html
Several Mitsubishi, Kia and Hyundai wheels fit, as well as a lot of Mazda.

The offsets too much for a Bongo - could cause problems in the event of a puncture or brake failure
