What kind of tires?

Did you look up the tire manufacturer's specs for approved rim widths?

Actually, if you read the website carefully, they use 15x8 to calculate their measurements ("measurement rim width"), but they approve their tires to be on rims up to 1 inch wider or narrower than the measuring rim width, so they can be on rims as narrow as 15x7 (as vtecsi00 stated) or as wide as 15x9.

What kind of Honda/Acura car uses tires that big?
