Default 16x7.5 45 offset 215/45/16 tires, fit? or no?

http://www.aj-racing.com/catal...age=1

Would these fit a 98 R? Suspension is gonna be koni yellows on stock springs, for now and GC coil overs later. It will not be dropped much at all. I was even jsut hinking of ordering some higher rate springs but stock legnth so no drop. I also will have my ATS 4.929 FD tranny in come spring.
What do you guys think? Fit or not?

the recomended offset range for that size tyre is 39-40.8
think you might have probs with 215 tyres

so worse case some 5mm spacers then?
Also what would the widest tire be that you could squezze under the R on that rim?
With or without the 5mm spacer.
Also how bad will it be the the 4.40FD?

215/45/15 is the oem tire size in japan.

it's fine... really.

225's will require a 5mm spacer - if that.

It really depends on how far you're lowered.

16x8's definitely require a spacer with 225's if you've got a +50 offset.
