depends on how much you want the wheel to stick out.

The difference between the crown/rubber meets the road between 15x7 and 15x8 is very small.

If I had a choice and preferred the 15x7's, I would choose the 15x7's.

Will depend on the backspacing as well.

I have 15x8 with 3.75" backspacing which pushes the whole rim/tire outwards a touch too much.

15x8 with 4-4.25" backspacing is perfect for the Delica.

15x7 with 3.75 - 4 " of backspacing is perfect as well.
