i hope that when you say measured you actully just read it eg 185/60 R14

Depends on the size of the rim most of the time

because they are 15" alloys they will be fine mate no probs fitting & won't look silly at all

take a look at my mates chazsxi his sxi alloys same profile 185/55 R15

and today on his other corsa b the same alloys

no probs just needs lowering!! there are a few other b's on here with sxi alloys same profile

more pics> http://www.corsasport.co.uk/board/viewthread.php?tid=224293

heres some 14" Softstars on a b look a tad small

do this with them get it decked and put them on!

the gsi has 185/60 R14 on 14" alloys here check the link below

so it won't look out of place or silly, ideally when u get the chance get some low profile tyres on their reduce the tyre wall height a bit, but for now they will be fine matey
