They're alright. I used to run 215's on my Hotwires when I was at uni cause the price difference to 225's or 235's was massive at the time.

If they are 60+ profile they might be OK, I had 225s on an 8" on the front and 245s on the back. |
You only have to be in front at the end of the race. |

I have 205 on a 7 inch and 245 on an 8 inch and they fit well. |

215 on 8`s seem almost a bit small , I would a size up, ask at the tyre dealer before getting them fitted.
