15x7.5 et 40 wheels on 86 5ktq?

[TM]

I have not seen successful mountings of any wheels wider than 7 inches
and with an offset greater than 45mm on the rear of a non-flared type
44.

This would definitely require a test-fitting.

Hi,
Has anyone have any BTDT with mounting a set of 15x7.5 et 40 wheels on a
5ktq? I have an extra set of tires (BFG R1s, autocross cast offs) and
would like to mount them on a wider wheels then the stock 6 inch rims.
Fuch's 7 inch wheels would be nice, but none are available that do not
cost big $ ( around 500 - 800), and I can buy new 15x7's from tire rack
for 100.00 apiece also..... ....But..... 15x7.5 s4 wheels might seem the
ticket with their 40 mm offset. Any advice? Also has anyone used a
225/50/15 with the before mentioned combos? Thanks to all in advance!
