Not without grinding a few mm off the front calipers.

I have fit 15's on the front no worries at all. 15's on the back however, needed wheel spacers for clearance on the brake caliper

My bad, knew it was one of them. Wheel spacers are illegal on road so just depends if you wanna run the risk.

It would have to be a huge negative offset to clear the callipers and tie rods...yes you can grind the callipers a few mm, but be careful doing this as far as legality and insurance purposes goes...you don't want to make any unnecessary donations to the DOT fund. Depending on the style of rims you're after, there are alternatives in 16's available for the 80. :cool:
