no

I rub with my 205's on complete turns

 

Nope you'll rub. I tryed it and rubbed the inside. You'll need like a 45mm offset for that tire to work.

This was on a 1996 coupe though.

And I ended up using 205's on the same wheels and still rubbed a little on full turns.

 

205s are still cutting it close.

 

are there any mods than can be done or bought to make bigger tires fit without too much rubbing?

 

possible wheel spacers with arp wheel studs, might help. but watch the offset also

 

if you dont have your car slammed you could pull off the 205 but 215 thats just to big
