Default 15s for winter?

Anybody know if a 225 can run 15in steelies? I've got 16mm spacers up front, 20mm rear. I found a sweet deal on some 15s so I may try to test fit 'em. If anybody knows, post up. Thanks!

you will need 16's to clear the calipers.

$hit. It's a PITA trying to get people to answer their 'for sale' threads, or PMs for that matter. I didn't think it'd be this frustrating to get a set of winter wheels. Guess I gotta let the 15s go

16 steelies were my reason for buying spacers. Bought the rims, bought new tires, put them on the car and they sat so close to the calipers that a tight turn would flex everything just enough that the rim was shaving the paint off the calipers.

15's are definately a no go.
