Mike_M Posted July 2, 2012 Report Share Posted July 2, 2012 With the right tyres as in 195/40/16 they will have the same rolling radius as 15's with 195/45/15 tyres............it comes down to the offset and width of alloys you buy then.

LupoBoi Posted July 2, 2012 Author Report Share Posted July 2, 2012 im currently on 15 x 7 fronts et 30 with no spacers and 165/50. for the rear im on 15 x 7 et 30 with 23mm spacers so brings et down to 7 with 165/50. the size wheel im looking at is 16x8 et 34 for the rear with 195/40, according to willtheyfit i should only gain 8.2mm in ride height and tucking nearly 15mm more therefore they should fit fine.its just the fronts im not sure about if i run the same as the rear i will gain the same ride height but be poking nearly 9mm more, which is do-able as i havent rolled front arches or i can run 16x7 et 40 on front but im not sure what side tyres.
