I did a TON of research on the subject of 15x8's a year or two back, mostly 
by asking questions on here...   unfortunately I suffered a huge data loss 
last year and no longer have the info, but searching the archives should 
work I think.

As long as the backspacing is right I dont think they are much trouble.. 
there is a spot INSIDE the wheelwell you need to hammer a bit (at the bottom 
front of the wheel well), but the wheel arch/fender itself should be fine. 
Naturally, this all depends on the tires you choose as well.
