Default CRX wheels question

sooo i searched and couldnt get a striaght forward answer that satisfied me.....my question is i have a 91 crx si, bout to have skunk2 coilovers(only lowering it about and inch) and i want to get some decent lookin wheels. well at the moment work equips are outta the buget. so i was lookin at the axis og oldskool wheels. they come in 15x8 offset +25. is that too big? will i be ble to run these wheels without rollin the fenders. what size rubber will i need to run, will 195/45/15 work? i dont want the lip to be hangin out(euro look??). or if someone can tell me how to grab up some rota flashbacks that would be nice too. thanks in advance. and this is just my DD i want to look nice.

Yes. That wheel is too wide for the tire size you need, which is 195/50-15. 195/50-15 tires should only be mounted on wheels 5.5-7.0 inches wide, not 15x8.

195/50-15, if you get 15" wheels. (Other options are 205/40-16 or 195/45-16 for 16" wheels, and 185/60-14 for 14" wheels.)

No, the diameter of that size is too small. And besides, there's only one tire available in that size, and it's horribly expensive.
