Default 15 x 7 on my hatch?

Will a 15 x 7 wheel and tire package fit on my 1996 hatchback? (i have a b18c engine swap in it) i don't want to purchase this package unless i know what will fit.

What is the offset of the wheels? Are they 4X100, 5X100, etc.? What suspension are you riding on?

The best 15" tire size for your hatch (stock size is 175/70-13) is 195/50-15. There are a lot of good 195/50-15 tires available. Most of them show a range of approved rim widths of 5.5 to 7.0 inches. So the tire can be mounted on the rim, but since that's at the high end of the approved range, they may appear "stretched". I would probably go with a 15x6 instead.
