He probably used a measuring tape to measure from lip to lip, which on my 15*7" wheels, comes out to about 8". I'm 99% sure the actual bead-to-bead (seat-to-seat, rather than lip-to-lip) width is 7". Not bad for 15" wheels, except for offset. xp Better than stock, but only by 12mm or so. You'd need a 25-30mm spacer to make those things sit flush. :)

Wheel width doesnt determine lip size. Just look at 15x7 0 offset enkei, riken, or ssr mesh wheels.

Lip size depends on the design of the wheel. And depending on the design, the offset of the wheel may effect the lip size as well.

Kinda fishy he isnt showing side pics..
Yea most old school wheels on ebay say their 15x8 but their 15x7, both the sets of wheels I bought are 15x7 and they were marked 15x8.. :-/
