my buddy has them on an ek hatch it looks a little more beefy but not a bad look at all , if you want traction thats the size that you'll need

sweet
do you think you could get a head-on picture of the car with the camera on the ground so i can see how wide they look compared to the car?

don't mean to thread jack, but

Would this setup fit under a slammed 92-95 hatch? To be specific, 225/50/15's.

Why would you base the sidewall height on wheel width? It should actually depend on the offset of the wheel to whether or not they'll rub.

No spacers should be needed, you want the tires to tuck, not to stick out. By adding spacers, you lower the offset of the wheel, making it stick farther out.
