Guard rolling recommend.

Pham has them on his car - http://omgpham.com/tag/axis-og-san http://omgpham.com/downshift-meet-march-2012-others

i have 15x8 +15 and rolled the guards slightly.

Ive got 15x8 +25 Rota RB's on my car and AFAIK there is no rolling (bought the car with the wheels). I dont have any issues what so ever with scrubbing. My car isn't very low yet. It was on Bilstein struts with king springs so there was around 1-1.5" of tyre to guard gap.

I've asked around and some wheel shops have said NO, some have said YES, some have said - I may need to get the guards rolled. It would be great to know if someone has fitted them before, and if there were any clearance issues.

what tyres are you putting on the rims?
what height is your suspension?
how much camber are you running?

The answers to these questions will affect the answer to your question of whether they fit...

If you are putting 225s on them with stock camber and lowered 3 inches, then no chance,
but if running fooly sick 165s stretched onto the 8s with 4 deg camber and near stock height then it probably wont have any clearance issues

Plenty of people have run 15x8 +25 on an NA before but there are a lot more variables involved than just the wheels. Tyres and ride height being the two major ones, alignment and definition of ‘fit’ probably next in line.

Edit: Rascal beat me to it.

As others have said.

I've got 15x7 +28 wheels, and with 195/50 RE001s clearance is fine, but with 205/50 Semi slicks I need guards rolled.

i have 15x8 +25 on mine with 205/50 tyres. Mild rolling of rear guards and fronts (easily done with a heat gun and rubber mallet) and no clearance issues, I'm not running stupid camber either (car sitting 11.5cm lowest clearance with fuel/no occupants kerbside)
Sits comfortably flush to the edge of the car just like Vrmmmpshhh's
