16x8's with +0 will be flush if not a little more, or do you mean wheel/fender gap? Just get coils and slam it.

who said i was trying to show them off?, the only reason i took pictures of my car with my phone is because i wanted to know if i was going to have to roll my fenders and what not and trust me ive searched like a billion times and of course i find people who have 002's, in the 15x8, usually on a 205 size tire, but i need some people who have a 16x8 on a 225

If people with a 15*8 running 205s need a roll to fit them, you will more than likely need more than a roll to fit a 16*8 with a 225 on them

isnt the only reason people have to roll to fit them is because their cars are slammed?

And because the wheel sticks out without the use of agressive camber settings. Under coimpression you're gonna rub sick. Only time I haven;t seen 205s rub was on a stock car, and that's because 1) the wheel was so far from the fender that it wasn't gonna rub, 2) and even if it did compress all the way, it'll camber in because of all the travel. But again, it's a 205, not a 225.
