15x8 et25 195/50/15

Hi Fitfreak,

I have a question that I need some help with.

I have a 2012 honda fit(ge8) and I want to know if these wheels/tires can clear my fender with a roll. I don't want to pull my fenders and I am feeling these are too wide. Is there a way to measure so I get exact measurements. thanks in advance for any help I get. And don't tell me to search because there is nothing detailed enough to help me on fitfreak. I've looked at every page on the wheel & tire subcategory. a mere total of 7 pages... well thanks in advance.

Sincerely,
TurboDatFit

Sigh...

TE37V + GE8 = - Honda-Tech

Hollywood*'s CBP GE8 ~THE DAILY~ - Honda-Tech

If you still can't deduce from reading (actually reading) no you won't fit x8 +25 with just a roll, you will have to pull, especially in the front.

Here, 16x7.5 +25 in the front

Yes, I couldn't find 15, most people run 16s on GEs, but the overall diameter is probably pretty similar, unless you're running lower profile tires on the 15s and your speedo is going to be all out of whack.


Most people run 16s or 17s on the GE because of the below statement:
