Depends on tire size, ride height and camber. Give us all the details :wink:

But yeah most likely you'll need some fender work

8" is wide and yes they will poke out depending on the offset. Depending on what offset you have you will need to run a camber kits or roll fenders. Usually if its ZERO offset the rims will not sit straight, so you have to roll fenders and buy a camber kit so it doesnt rub even if you are lowered. Now Usually anything above zero on the offset it will poke out less and all you will need to do is roll your fenders. I wouldnt recommend XXR's for any civic. They are cheap rims, break, and the company has many legal issues with those rims. I use BWR (BLACK WORKS RACING) camber kit and it works well . I plan on doing my rim set up soon with wheels called KLUTCH.

Image These are ZERO offset with rolled fenders and a bwr camber kit.

15x8 +10 will stick out unless you ride slammed, with a stretched tire and some camber.
