So what do guys that are lowered have in the 15x7/8 size that will fit without rub? Also what tire size to accommodate said wheels and tires. [MENTION=636]RAAMaudio[/MENTION] I know you have your dial in 15x8 but would they fit without having fenders pulled and rolled?
I'm lowered on h&r springs and when the time comes, I'd like to be ready to choose the right rim. Mostly looking for what offset is pushing the limits.
I do rub on full lock with stock rims with conti dws06 205/45/17s. No rubbing during hard driving, just full lock.

My Dial In wheels, replaced with Helix now, are 15x9 which is a whole lot of work to make fit in the rear, less but still had to roll and pull the fenders up front, more camber etc.

A lot of rubbing up front is from the really silly way the fenders and bumper cover bolt together, you can cut away the 3rd bolt and fix rubbing on a lot of setups depending on tire height, width, and offset of the wheels, etc.

Best 15x8 I know of is the 6ul +36mm, lowest weight at just 11.4lbs, flow formed so super strong, around $159 each, killer deal for the quality and weight.

The 15x8 Konig's and Advanti made my Konig and most other 15x8 wheels is the offset it +25mm which just does not work right for this car.

By not work for this car, you mean rub?
I saw dial ins 15x7 with a 35 or 38 offset and thought those might be nice.
