15 inch fitment! I have track wheels/tires, and because I don't have the performance package brakes, I though it would be fun to attempt this to try and get a little more sidewall for daily driving.

15x7 ET15 Speedline Corse (Mann Engineering Spec)
205/60R15 Falken Sincera SN250 A/S
Techno Toy Tuning outer toe rod ends because the OEM ones still had a little contact with the barrel.

Looks great! And, how does it drive with the gumball tyres?

BTW, do you have spacers too?

It drives pretty good, obviously steering isn't as sharp, and there is a small delay to the way the back moves when you give it aggressive inputs, but completely reasonable, the car feels balanced and appropriate for daily driving. I think this tire and 205s on a 8 inch wide wheel work. On the plus side, cracks and bumps are a little more rounded out, and road noise is much better.

No spacers, and these specific wheels are hub centric too. But stock outer tie rod end would not work, contacts the wheel.
