Probably not enough space to clear the disk brakes. You need 16's minimum.

anyone know for sure? willing to grind down the caliper for a little more clearance, and the wheels will have like 3" of backspacing (8"wheel) dont have them to test fit them know. wanting to avoid buying new wheels but if i have to i guess i have too.
