Brake Caliper Interference/ rubbing?

Brake Caliper Interference/ rubbing?
Right now, I'm on 14/15 stiffness all around on Buddyclub N+ dampers , with xxr 501's with 195/50/16 16x8 +15 offset. Do you guys know if I'll have any problems running the 15x7 +10 offset on 195/50/15 or 185/55/15 and will I need spacers or can I just run them without problems? I fender cut my fronts, and fender rolled my back! Thanks for the help, in advance. Also, I have the front cambered in -3.65.
P.S. Here's what my car looks like with the XXR 501's with stretched tires and camber in the front

Pretty much all of the information you gave is irrelevant.
Since there are some that have put on 14" wheels, the only other deciding factor is the spoke design. Namely what kind of arch the spokes produce coming from the hub section to the rim.
15x7 +10 isn't enough information to determine that.
But it appears that most wheels have an arch (not completely flat faced on the inside) and just having it would most likely clear.

Years of wheel sales experience, I have held both wheels in hand and had a chance to see the back of them. Couple that with the knowledge I have of the hub and caliper clearance of the fit, and thaw fact that I've had nearly a dozen different wheel and tire setups and I can assure you you will not have brake caliper clearance issues. You will have however have problems getting the tires under the fender. Even running the skinniest 15" tire, which will look ridiculous, you just don't have a wide enough rim to stretch it where the tread will sit under the fender edge. You will either to have to run a ton of camber or do a massive pull on the fenders which will both look downright silly to just fit a narrow 7" wheel.
Low offset 15's are going to be really hard to make work on a ge8.
