Will these rims/tire fit without a rolled fender

Postby scalpel » Fri May 26, 2017 1:42 pm

Searched and had some conflicting info.

Was wondering if a 15x8+0 for front and rear with 195/50/15 fit WITHOUT rolling fenders

Car is not lowered.

I have basically the same rims with a stock height and it is fine. I just recently changed my whole suspension and lowered my car. I have yet to try and see if they fit since I am not quite done with the install.

I read of people saying 195 for tires are too stretched and should do 205?

Were you 0 offset and 8 width also?

Thanks aukword1

195 stretched on a 15 with 0 offset. 8" wide and they work fine. Been running that setup for years with no issues at stock height. I did have to put some small wheel spacers in the avoid some rubbing though. It depends on the rim when you are stretching the tires. My rims welcomed the stretching. Talk to your tire guy when he is trying to stretch them on. IF they are having problems or it is being difficult to stretch to your rim I'd suggest going with the 205.

I can't say since I don't have them. I have a pretty big gap so I can't imagine it would rub with 205's.

My old car. 15x8 offset 0 with 195/50R15 all around.
As you can see, car is lowered but all my fenders were NOT rolled.
205 is too wide in my opinion. Good luck.
