It depends on the offset... I'm running 15x8's up front with belltech's, but the wheels stick out way farther than the factory steelies.

ive seen a few people run 15" pathys with spindles. not sure who it was though or if you need to trim anything to make them work

its all in the offset. I ran the stock chrome 14`s with small spacers behind them and also ran 15" hammer style wheels that did not rub. the hammer style wheels stuck out some so no spacers were needed. The manufacturer will tell you 16 or some say 17 i say call them and go by there recomendations.
