195/45 on 15x8+0
Blood, Sweat, and IRON.
I have 15 x 8 on +20. The fenders are rolled and the ride height is 4.75" f, 5.125" R at the pinch welds. No issues.
The car was 1/2 to 3/4" lower before I left SOCAL.
The tires are 205/50-15 Direzza 101s or whatever they call them. The rim protector on the tire makes them look a *little* stretched, but not too bad.
Here is the old ride height (IIRC, 11.5" F, 11.75"R). The camber was waay to negative in the rear from shifted offset bushings.
ill take a few pics of mine, i have 195/50 on 15x8 et +0 on the front... 205/50 on 15x8 et +0 on the rear. i had to roll and pull the hell out of them. But it gives it a nice wide and low look.

Oh were you looking to not roll your fenders? Dude if you want to run ANY offset, you need to have rolled your fenders. Mine are completely flat, but I probably didn't have to take it that far. I also have about 1 to 2 degrees of camber.

I are feared of rolling my fenders
I am looking at getting 15x8 or 15x7.5 and I would like to run 225's
I ran 225/45-15 on 15x7.5 for the track, +42, IIRC. The tires bulge a little, especially if the tire has a rim protector. The inside of the tire rubbed the RB front sway under full lock.
SOOOO... here is some pics, 15x8 et 0 front is 195/50, and my rear is 205/50... fenders are rolled flat then pulled using the newspaper method!!
it looks like they will hit when the suspension is used but when the tire goes upward it gets enough camber to clear from hitting
It looks like the question has been mostly answered already, but here is some more input if anyone cares:
15x8 +25 w/ 205/50-15 Fuzion ZRi tires
Fenders are rolled somewhat, but not flat. No pull. You might be able to get by without rolling them at all, since there's a fair amount of clearance, but I'd suggest a mild roll just to be safe.

The canards on the front? Those are the Garage Vary large fiberglass canards. I was just test-fitting them in those pics. They're still sitting in my closet waiting for me to get a bunch of other projects completed first.
