Falken do a 195/45/15 that can go on an 8. https://docs.google.com/document/d/1cRjsAd9kkQCVbvjdLO4aXh2zVMqzi17KtqNEITXRE68/edit I run 205/50/15s not huge stretch and are only a couple of mill off the standard rolling diameter from stock. http://i1332.photobucket.com/albums/w609/Inferno_Encave/Das%2...

Nice, wondered how 205/50's would look on an 8 inch rim. I'm hoping to fit 215's or 225's on an 8. But I think thats a pipe dream because I refuse to run fender flares. You don't need flares, depends on what offset you are running on the wheels, I am running 225's on 8's and about to fit on some 24...
