Yes you can run 15" rims. I'm running 5.5" backspacing on my 15x8" rims.

these slicks orig. had like 4 passes on them but have been sitting for about 2.5yrs. think they're still good? also i was told to just heat em up real good the first time out. i know they're not great but should be better than my stock goodyears. right? all ya they're still soft, i can compress the sidewall real easy.
