the rims will be wider... without spacers you'd catch the shock instead... my 15's ET49 are about 1mm away from the shock on the tyres inner edge

when i had a 45 series tyre on my speedlines they rubbed slightly on the plastic shock casing at the back, rubbed heavily on the NSR arch, on both front arches both inside and out. also you have to take the dust caps of to fit the centre caps and make sure the split pin on the rear castle nut doesn't foul the centre caps or they will fall off!
once i got the 40 series tyre they still rubbed on the front sometimes but looked great and didn't touch at all at the back.
