Short answer is it will not fit without modifying. Now, if you are asking if the car can be modified to make them fit, the answer is yes.

AFAIK no 8" wheel will fit without work. I had rubbing in the rear with 7" +40's until I did some massaging. The factory wheels are +55...anything less than about +45 will rub.

Thanks for the info! ; ). I'm getting a XXR 521 rolling the fender not a problem I'm just concern about will the front wheel turn without rubbing. The wheel size 16x8 with a +20 offset and putting these tires on them 215/40/16 with just a little strech on it....

you shouldnt have any problems at all but the size tire might be you have to go smaller like a 205 or 195 so you dont rubb as much knock to knock

The narrower you go in tires the less work you will have to do for clearance. Just keep in mind this is not the best handling plan.
