23/9.5/15 cantilevers on 8" wheels

Hey Guys,
Can you fit the cants on the 8" wheels ? I only have 8" wheels right
now and wanted to run slicks next season . Plans are for 10" next year,
but I need way to much suspension work before the wheel tire change.

Yes, but they may wear weird.

Yep...like Cary says, you will see a weird groove form about 1" in from the inner shoulder. That was the standard Z tire in FP prior to allowing 16x10s in the class. They're definitely slower than the 16's, but still great for all but the most competitive events.
