I sold a guy 15x6 +24 wheels for his '80 510 2 door. They fit fine with 205/50 tires. These have a 4.4" back space

 

Your 8" wheels have a 5.5" back space,

 

I doubt you can fit much more than a 4.5" backspace without hitting the strut (maybe closer to 5.0" with a really stretched tire). On an 8" rim to get a 4.5" backspace you need a +0 offset. Now that might clear the strut, but it is an inch further outboard that what you have that doesn't fit and now the fender becomes the issue.

 

Putting an 8" wheel on any car that came with 4.5" originally takes allot of measuring and likely a bunch of fender rolling.

Do your homework.

 

You want a happy marriage? Find someone that fits you or you'll be doing all the changing to fit to her. Smokin' hot, high maintenance girlfriends are nice to look at but a cunt to live with full time.  Two words... sensible shoes. Rims and tires fit the car, not the other way round.

As I answered you before in your other thread...

 

 

My wagon has ZX struts and 14x7 0 offset fits anything more than 7" will not fit if your car is lowered

If you get 15s, you will probably have to run less then 60 series because it might hit your bottom perch

I don't think you can fit an 8 back there. I had a 14x7 0 offset 205/60 in the rear and I had like 3 playing cards of space between the sidewall and the inner fender.

 

Not trying to be a dick, but...If you go making threads asking questions, at least read the answers. I've been daily driving a lowered wagon almost exactly the same as yours for 3 and a half years.
