16x8 +15 on del sol

Was wondering if I can manage to fit 16x8 +15 with 205/50/16 tires on my del sol. Did some researching but no real good answers on it.

well let me put it like this. I have 16x9 +15, and the first set if tires I ran were 205/50/16's and omg was that a bad idea. I bearly got them to fit on the car. If yo want to do a test fit with mine let me know and we can meet up.

With that spring shock combo ... no if your trying to "fit" them as in stance out the car you will need coilovers and camber kits to correctly fit them , plus you will need to have your fenders rolled and pulled.

Jen has 16x8 +20 with 205/40/16 on her delsol and with a good roll and pull they fit perfectly in the rear and she needs a camber kit in the front to bring them out a bit to "fit" the wheel well better.

I have 16x8 +20 with 205/45/16 on my integra with a roll and pull and camber kits and they fit perfect

Now if your just wanting to know if they will physically fit on your car ... yes they absolutely will but you'll be mexi poke and not look good at all

Looks like Chris beat me to it lol

You can look in my mini kitty build thread for an idea on the fitment he's talking about.

WTF... how does that make any sense at all? it's not the diameter of the wheel that will cause the issues.. it's the width , offset and tire size

a 15x8 +20 will fit exactly the same as a 16x8 +20 just the tire sizes would be different .. example 205/50/15 vs 205/45/16

and dont worry .. wheel sizing takes a while to get a hang of
