    As CDAWG's pictures show, the gap really isn’t that bad.
    I have 15x8 in all four corners and was worried about the gap as well.  But, once the trim rings were installed, it’s hardly noticeable.
    I’m at work right now, but, if you want, I can take pictures this afternoon and post them.

    Sorry, but that GAP just doesn't look good to me which is why I stick with the 15 x 7's.

    Whilst up close and in photos like above it looks a little odd, once they're on the car and you stand back, you simply don't notice it.

    For me.............. It was not an issue at all, you really have to be looking for it.

    Gap is only noticeable if you are looking for it!  I think they look great!

    I think the 15x8 rim on the back looks great!  I have the same set up on my cuda, dont notice the gap at all.

    I've always wondered why haven't any of the Mopar reproduction companies haven't offered a 15" x 8" ring.

    Tooling costs. O.K.

    But logic is alot of owners would switch over to a little more width fitted. I'd think they'd re-coup the costs of manufacturing them that fit in all the way correctly.
