ET15 is what you'd use on Esc Cos and will stick out by about 20mm too much and will probably cause you probs, but if you really must fit them use 215/40 tyres

Hello matey,
No, 8X17 on an ET15 won't go on a saph sorry. You can't even roll the arches either as the wheel will physically sit outside the body line and thus will always cause fouling with the body.

Aye, ET15 on an 8X17 will go on a 3dr IF you cut away the original steel arch and then trim the body kit and stick it back on again! This method also allows up to 10X17's to go on with a 265 tyre.

The perfect size MO's and tyres for a Saff without arch mods would be
7.5 x 17 et37 front
8 x 17 et35 rear
Fitted with 225/35's all round!
