Hey guys quick question. I know perfect would be 15x8 with 4 bs. Now with that said,

I bought a set of 15x4 fronts from jegs that are jegs brand.(IMITATION PROSTAR)

Afterwords I found out that they dont have a 15x8 with 4 inch bs. Anyways options are as follows: 15x7 with 4inch bs
15x8 with 4.5 inch bs

I had stock gn wheels before with 275 60 15 m+h's. I have the tires to mount on the new wheels but wich ones do i buy????

I have my rear fenders rolled already cuz i was planning on lowering the car! I am scared that the 15x7's with these tires will rub on the inside and I am worried the 8 with the 4.5 will stick out!!!

HELP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

They would tuck in under the car not stick out. See diagram below. So the more BS you have the futher in the wheel will tuck under your car. Now with 4.5 BSing, you may be rubbing the frame.

wheel spacing!!!

Ok I got it now but still dont know what to order! 15x8 with 4.5 bs with the 275 60 15 should work ok right? I had these tires with stock gn wheels and they worked fine. I think stock wheels are 15x7 with 4.75 bs or 4.5 bs. The only issue is when the car would squat real hard they would rub on the frame. With that said the same tire with 1 more inch of rim should bulge the tire less and prob. not rub right!

Or should i just go with the 15x7 with 4 bs?

Take a look at the Nitto 275 50/15 fit! thread.
Tire height is 25.75"
I'm running a 10" rim with 3.373" back spacing I have a full 1" between the frame and the tire.
The tire is flush with the fender if you rolled the fender you shouldn't rub there.
Yes I have air bags and big sway bar

ordered the wheels!

I went ahead and placed the order so i can have them bymonday cuz the car is on bricks right now. I bought the 15x8 with 4.5bs. I saw in one of the posts you guys gave me that 4.5 might not rub and if it does a 1/4 spacer will work so i can do something bout it that way! The other way around if i dont like it, I cant add more rim! Well thnx for the help guys!!!

I'm running 15x8's w/ 4"bs and 275/60's...The passenger side fits perfect and centers up between the frame rail and wheelwell. I have a 1/4" spacer on the drivers side to move it away from the frame rail and center it up. I also had to trim the wheelwell lip to lower the car down.
