Default Enkei RPF1 15x8 +28 fit TEMPORARILY under stock fenders?

Hello everyone,
I am getting 15x8 +28 enkei rpf1 with 205/50 tires and need to know if they will fit under stock fenders with my coilovers raised to stock(ish) height for a short period of time until I can get my fenders rolled.
How risky would this be?

There is no risk, these should have miles of clearance.

It depends if it's an NA or NB. It will work on both, but is tight on an NA. A little fender rolling is a big help. Even if it's just the sheet metal flange rolled up with a baseball bat. I have two sets of these for my NA with 205 ECS and the other 225 Rival 1.5s. They are both working at a pinch weld height of 5.125"F & 5.2"R. The 225's do rub a bit on big curbs/bumps. I'm running Xidas with 700/400lb springs. Stiffer suspension does help.

Should fit fairly easily.

Fine with stock shocks. If you have coilovers or something that allows more bump travel, you will probably get into the fender liners. If they are close to rubbing the fender lips, you can run a bit more camber if you haven't already.
