hi i was just wondering if anybody knows if 195/50/15 tyres will rub on the arches if i was too lower my corsa 40 mm as well?
thanks phil

No problems.

what about 195/55/VR15

cheers

No idea but 55 profile will make your speedo inaccurate. 50 or 45 profile on 15"

ah thanks good to know

i have 195/55/15s with no problems.

i checked on that website link and when my speedo says im doing 70, with the bigger wheels i will actually be doing 75 ish

What are the original sizes of your wheels/tyres?

165/70r13 i think

fitted the new alloys today. and genuine mudflaps. the rear wheels are very close to the mudflaps but the fronts are fine

The tyre calc still recommends 45 or 50 profiles for your car. 55 profile puts you 5 mph out at 70mph.

yeh 55s are actually ment for cavs and vectras lol.

ill just have to drive slower then
they fill the arches up really well and with the front end lowered she looks very well balanced

will take some pics tomorrow
