Thanks!
Good luck on whatever you chose but remember there are many different styles to choose from so get hwat you like and not what everyone else runs.
^^^^^
Looks good man. I see you made the jump before I did. I actually decided to buy more music gear instead so wheels won't be puchased for a while. Guitars are my other sickness.
You dig the ride better on 15's?

I'm looking for rims for my autocrossing tires, which are a 195/55R15, the max recommended rim width for those is 7". I don't want to risk stretching them since they are going to be used for some serious driving.

I like these rims a lot...prob go with these since I need the sidewall on 15" rims...I went through 6 17" rims in about a year...ugh. Though I'll probably have to lower my car more if I get these...
I hate hate hate to revive this thread but, i am finally buying some 15x8 501, its been on my wishlist for awhile. Well I'm on my steelies right now running 195/60/15, and there is about 80% thread life left. I hate to see it go to waste (kind of), i know these tires will fit the 501, but will they look right? I want a stretch look, if not then a little stretch. My xb1 is dropped on df210, and will roll my fender soon. I searched, but i didn't really find a solid answer. I read about 30 pages worth of thread about 195/50/15. Any help is welcome
*Edit - reread and realize you have 195/60 tires, in this case your 'stretch' will be less pronounced.
My combo:
xxr 501 , 195/50R15 tires. Looks pretty good!
First pic, without spacers on rear.

Second pic, with 10mm spacers added to rear:
