What size do u think those are
These are 14x6 +12 offset
195/60/14 tires

I like the tires size and fitment, now i just need the filled in look. Lil scared of having to "make" things work. Gap between front fender and tire could be closed up a bit, maybe a 15" would do that?

Ahgrax,
There are more variables at play then just wheel size , tire size, wheel offset , suspension setup etc all play a role
you can have 14â€ wheel and tire combo which fills the gap better then 16â€

Based on your comments and perceived knowledge i would highly recommend you spend some time looking at Alvinâ€™s wheel and tires post and take note of the specs of wheel, tire ,springs combo that you like and look for wheels with the same specs

Make sure you look at late cars since yours is a 67.5

Good luck

Wider wheels (negative offset) actually raise the car, if your springs are still in good shape.
Stancing will require spring work. Shave .200â€ off of both ends of the spring. And .400 off of the bumpstop. Done.

Does anyone know if 15x8 with 0 offset wheels will fit on a 1969 Roadster?

Where is a 15x 8 with 4 lug pattern?
My 14 x6 with 70s 185 barely work
280 zx had 15" 4 lug but not a hole big enough for the frt. hub on 311

Itâ€™s hard finding 4 bolt on114.3 pattern these days. Plenty 5 bolts though.

Short answer is no.
With some creativity anything is possible though!
Here is a 15x8 running a 225/50/15 tire:
