Stretching the tires just a bit over a 8.5 and 9.5" wheels should be fine.

+15 does seem a but low. I did a quick search and didn't come up with anything. Can you any confirm this?

I originally read it on here, from a post that linked a table from some doc, but I just checked the service manual and it says this for the 18" wheels:

Front: 18 × 8J Aluminum/43 (1.69)
Rear: 18 × 9J Aluminum/15 (0.59)

They are definitely +15 offset - the rear sport wheels are +30.
