=============================
don't want any confusion here - i *don't* have 8" wheels on my werde - i have
15x7 stilauto ghibli's, 33mm offset, i believe, currently shod w/205-50-15's.
it will get 215-50-15's when the current tires wear out.  the 215-50-15 is
closer in diameter to the stock 195-55-15.

it's my gtwe6 that has the 15x8 wheels, shod w/225-50-15's...

ciao for now,

doug s.
