Will a 15" x 8" 3,75"bs wheel fit under '79 Malibu front?

Rim Diameter: 15 in.

Would this fit under my '79 Malibu front?

Cheers

Yes they should, I am running a steel rally 15X8 w/4" BS and only have rubbing issues with passenger(s) with 215/70/15 tires on the outer plastic fenderwell because I am running stock worn out 6 cylinder coil springs still.

I have Wheelvintique repro 15x8/3.75bs rallies on my 87ss and have never had any issues with them.
On a side not if you still have the original 78 spindles I would suggest swapping them out for some 79 or newer spindles. The wheel bearings are smaller and were prone to excessive wear.

I ofcourse don't have 78 spindles.. it's a 79 Malibu
