Hey guys i just got some rpf1s in the size mentioned above, i wanted to know how these can be fitted on and what modifications will need to be done, everything is stock in the car and im guessing i will need to remove fender liners and roll the fenders. :brokenheart: Does anybody know if spacers will be necessary as well? Ive seen other posts of other people fitting 15x7 35+ with seemingly no problem but ive also seen some that do have problems as well, id assume that would be because of wheel design but i wouldnt really know, im just a noob and dont know much about cars. Any help is appreciated, thx. Also forgot to mention my tire setup is 195/50/15

Put them on, see if they rub? You're not on lowering springs so wheel arch clearance shouldn't be a serious issue.

You can also look at online tire size comparison tools to check for suspension and fender clearance. The old one at rimsntires.com seems to be gone but there are others to be found.

Should be fine with that size tire.

I use the same wheel with a 1/4" spacer, and a 215-580-15 tire with a fender roll and camber.

They fit right on, no need to do anything except fitting spigot rings.

yeah it really wasnt a issue, they fit right on. i was worried because sites like ebay and amazon said they did not fit and there wasnt much i could find to really prove that or not.

thank you guys for the help, i wished i would of known the 16x7 fits before i bought these i would of totally gone for it! i was also hoping they would of changed the feel of the car more than they did. :/ This is my first time buying wheels so i didnt really know what to expect goung from the stock steelies to these. it only cutting around 6-7 pounds but i still thought it would of been more of a change in ride quality, i guess its just my inexperience . Still thanks for all the advice, i aprreciate it. cheers

ride quality is more noteable in tire sidewall and tire construction, i run 15inch steelies for winter and 14s for summer the 15s are TALL and rub slightly on full lock...no real ride change, i suspect once you get to 16+ is where the real change is at
