The wheels you're talking about are imitation Rays TE37 in 14"

15" options that I know of include ROH Shift R & Adrenalin, but more open up if you drop to 14".

Without ANY modifications 5"
Rolling the arches and trimming the rear upper bump stop will get you to 6"
Of course that depends on wheel diameter, offset and tyre choice.

not really, possibly with the right offset & if u kept it at standard height.... ive got some photos of 15x7 on mine before i modded the guards and they hang wayyy out.  if photobucket didnt turn to aids i would link you the pics.

ill try find them and upload them on here for you.
