Will they fit? 15x7 0 offset (4 inch back spacing)

Interested in getting these as winter wheels:

a 15x7 at a ZERO offset may clear your brakes..... actually more like avoid them altogether haha.

but it would have an adverse effect on your handling (crazy scrub radius) and prematurely kill your bearings.

best to stick to 16s at a proper offset.

This. My question is why? Please don't tell me it is the $61 price per wheel. Are you going to be dirt tracking the car?

Don't think 15s will fit in the front.

Just buy some used OEM WRX wheels. Probably can buy those for cheaper than those Bassetts.
