        what's the offset on the rims? i immagine they're 15x7 and given that i can tell you how deep a spacer you'll need to run.
        Trees aren't kind to me...

          Sweet mike. Good find. You will need some spacers for the rear but probably no more than 1/2 inch

            Those will look real sharp once mounted - you rolling your fenders then?

              i still have a set of 1/4 inch spacers with the longer studs from when i had my 15 inch rims that i'm not using anymore

              They do look pretty sharp though

                  I'm running 205's all around on 8" wheels. Rolled fenders, pulled the rears a bit, and run a 1" spacer in the rear.

                    Sweet wheels! Let us know how they work out and take some pics when you get them installed. I'm thinking about putting the 15's I just got on my car and need any input from others running 15's.

                      it says that they are 6.5 wide. and it also says ET-40 on them, i think its 40 offset but not sure.... also they are made by 5zigen i got coil overs on the rear and they clear the 16" ones i had on the rear so i think 15" ones should clear... and plus i bought spacers when trying to fit my 16" rims but that was not enough to clear so i bought my coilovers so i stil have those spacers...

                      DAMKID. how long are those studs?

                      BUSTIVA. you needed to do all that to fit your 16" rims.... thats crazy...

                        Well I made them fit flush and with no wheel gap at all. It was all necessary, but I wanted perfect fitment.
