well, i think it really depends on the coilovers... but in response to dousan's answer, it may or may not clear. lets assume that a 15x6 +40 wheel "barely clears", a 15x7 wheel will add half an inch to both sides of the wheel, one inch is about 26mm, meaning it will add 13mm to each side. this suggest, with the above assumptions, that a 15x7 wheel will require +27 offset to "barely clear". i think you may need a 5mm spacer to clear coilovers with a 15x7 +32, but i can't say for sure, since i don't have coilovers.

i hope that helps! perhaps someone on this board has that wheel spec with coilovers... good luck!
