cobblers Posted April 7, 2009 Report Share Posted April 7, 2009 195/50s will fit, but will look terrible on them on a lupo - They are only 6j so 195/50s will balloon out!I tried a pair of 195/45s on and they looked full crap.You need 165/50s - Slight stretch but nothing unsafe, but its a look that suits the car.
