Just got Velox VX-8's, question...

I got them yesterday. They look sweet, gun-metal w/ a polished lip. Came mounted, balanced and what-not. So the only think that still wonders me, is the fact that they have 8 holes and my car is a 4 lug pattern. By looking with the naked eye it seems it is just two four lug patterns and will fit my car fine, which is what they company I bought them from said, but my question is, will this have any effect on strength of the rims? And if anyone else has these rims or knows about them, what did you do about the 4 empty holes? Since there are nly 4 lugs.

They're probably universals meaning that the extra four are a different bolt pattern for different cars. Will it effect the overall strength??? If it did they would'nt have designed em like that.
