Wheels, offsets, stud patterns..

Do you guys think i'd have problems running a 215 40 17" tyre on a set of 8" wide wheels?

Too much stretch / affect the speedo alot? Not sure..

thankyou
 
I have always been an oem wheel lover and never got into alloys and the likes. I have to get winter tires on my EP3 and decided to go with 16"s. I have come across a set of 16"X7,5. What tire width can these accommodate? I was thinking 205/60/16 which if memory serves me right, is a popular dimension for the golf 4, and quite cheap. But I'm concerned if there is going to be any rubbing. Any insight?

Hi, sorry to bump an old thread... But would 17x7.5J ET42 with 215/40/17 be fine on coilovers keeping arch liners and not rolling any arches if I wanted to go quite low or reasonably low say?
