I ran 15 by 8 and it did rub but can't can't remember the offset think was 35

My summer wheels are 16 by 7 and they are fine

My new wheels are 15x7 ET13 with 195/50 and they scrubbed like a bastard on my NA! You might JUST be okay but you'll defo need a panhard rod I'd have thought. Also NA axles/hubs might not stick out as much not too sure on that one, but IMO it'll be close to needing rolling, with 45s you might be okay.

Reason I don't want 45s is because of increased price (quite significant) and less comfort, my GT will be having rolled arches pulled as wide as possible. My wheels are so bad though that even that might not be enough I may need ID-Workz wings lol

It will need a nice bit of arch work if you do go for et20 get them 8 inch wide though. Imo et20 7's look weird and skinny at each corner and with 8 you will get a wee stretch on the tires size you've mentioned.

These are the wheels, they have no centre caps though so look quite deep, dish isnt too bad on them either. Considering removing the screw hole for the centre cap, painting the centres and polishing the lips, and fitting them with some nice deep wheel nuts. What do people think?
