    15x8 plus 10 will not fit on the front - you will need plus 1 and below

    and a 55 profile will rub on the rear - 195/50

    and steel wheels are shit

    but the potenzas if they are re002 are a good street tyre - good grip, good life, good price

    you will need to roll the guards and cut two notches from the bump stop

    15x8 plus 10 will fit on the back

    but get a matched set of wheels if you can

    Bolt on spacers on the front and roll the gaurds and they will fit. 195/50 is the correct tyre size and smaller profile than 195/55 so looks a bit better too imo. RE002's are alright, I use Toyo t-1r's and I think they're a better tyre personally but a bit more expensive.
