I'm gonna go in there and measure how much room there is. When I put the Speedmasters on, minus the tires, it didn't seem like there was much clearance room for the crash bolt bracket. I don't know if there would be enough room for a 7.5, but with a mid 30's offset, I think you could get them on there.

Shouldn't it fit? I'm only assuming so because all these people who are wearing 18s and up must be on 7.5s.

i wish my rims came 18x7.5, i would have gotten 225/35/18. but because they only come 18x7 the only good looking tire is 215/40

With an 18" rim, you're above the crash bolts with the inner lip of the rim.... with a 15, you'll run right into them.
