I would think so,, if blingers can put on 20's why cant rockers put on 15's,, its the out side diamiter that counts,, now,, those wheels are 15" wide right? thats where your going to have your problems,, youll probly end up with a 50' turnning radius

15" diameter is gonna be tight, I don't think they will fit on the H3.

I read the whole post but I only wanted to pick on one of the stupid things you said. Now, did you go look at the wheels on your H3 yet? Did you happen to notice that it would be awfully tight to fit a 15" DIAMETER rim around the brakes and steering components?

As for the rest of your post, those were 15.5" wide TIRES, not wheels. But you did catch the difference in lug patterns, so there's a bright spot.

Anything else?

I actually measured one time looking for a craiglist deal. I came up with less then 1/2" between wheel and caliper. A rock could get wedged in there and cause serious damage, and also might not allow for sufficiant cooling. I think Mr. Sewie has proven himself to know what he's talking about by now, 3500+ posts later, huh? Take it easy guys.

Damn didnt mean to start a fight....Ya I like my wheels but i can never find a decent set of used tires on craigslist for a 16" wheel...Most of the tires I find are for 15" wheels....I also think a 15.5" tire might be a little too wide.

Yeah those are really wide. I wonder how far they would stick out? That would be gangster though. Probably need a small block to spin those bad boys.
