i went 40/40 on dampers n springs n didnt rub so should be fine
i had 195/45/16

should be fine but again depends how low u wanna go
thats lowerd 40/40

yeah should think so as far as i no all vauxhal wheels are safe to go low with as they have the correct offset mine are after market i think the offset is wrong
