earliest 8x15 Fuch I've seen or heard of was 2/71
earliest RPO option 8x15 was for the '74 MY Carrera 2.7RS
I suppose that some of the Minilight cars might have had 8s in back but the rules for the STs allowed +2 wheels which is 8 & 9
here's the earliest ST that I've seen w/ possibly 8 & 9 Fuchs, this is a factory pic of a '72ST
