size tires??

Post by gethinwr93 »

hi there, i have been told off the guy i bought the car to keep it running on 185/55/R15 to stop it from catching like mad due to being lowered. But i have been looking on the forums and people seem to have lowered 60mm(as has mine) and are running 195/45 fine. The alloys are ceasaros (i think thats how you spell it) so are just standard vauxhall offset, what do you guys think? could i get away with a thicker tyre?
thanks in advance :)

yup you could easily get away with 195/45s without any problem. if they are vauxhall offset like urs are you can go down as far as u want -some people have even got it lowered 100mm on the back with them wheels and tires

yep fit 195 45 15 tyres you can get them cheap of ebay for a set of four budgets :) and because they're vauxhall wheels that is true you can propperly slam your car and wont get any scrubage 8)
