Default EA Fairmont ghia rims

Hey there,


A mate has an ed. He has 15x6.5 snowflakes on it, and wants to know if he can get the fairmont ghia rims these rims are 15x7. So the question is would he need to buy new tyres?

The Snowflakes are 15x7, where as the Turboblades (EA Ghia) are 15x6.5... the tyres should still fit with no problems.
