Hey everyone looking in the market for some new wheels but have questions. Will a 15x8 wheel fit with a 225/50/15 tire ?

a 225 is about 8.9 inches. So it'll fit. But make sure you get the right offset. We had 225 on our race car at first, I think we had them on 17x8 wheels. It would rub on the inside when the steering was turned all the way. You'll need a wheel with the right offset Do a search on this site for "offset". I think, but am not totally sure that you need an offset in the range of 35 to 40 mm or they'll rub on the fender. Since you're getting new wheels, you might want to consider 16" wheels. I'd guess that 16x7 wheels are a better fit. There is more tire selection in 16s than in 15s these days.==========================
