15" wheels won't fit... Unless you run a large wheel spacer and shave down your calipers.

On a NBS, smallest you can run is 16" due to the brake calipers

No problem! You'll need leveling keys, rear spacers, and shocks to run a 33" tire.

I've got eBay keys and spacers and run a 275/60/20 (33x11). Have right around $100 in the lift. Then found a slightly used set of Bilstine 5100's for the front for another $100. Love it!
