you guys are crazy.. you want to be running the HIGHEST offset possible because that's what this car is set-up for. If you're doing a 15x8, you'll want at least a +40 offset. if you run a high enough offset, you might even be able to get away with running a 225 width tire.. like a 225/45R15. Or if you want that stretched look you can run a 215/50R15. <- that's about as far as you can safely stretch onto a 15x8.

incredible amount of misinformation

also, the op isnt actually asking for what the widest he can run is, he wants to know how aggressively he can make his wheels fit.
